How CUTE Are These Guys? (We Rescued NINE Kittens)

We have rescued these nine kittens from our small village in Portugal BUT there’s many more where they came from!

In this video we’ll explain where these kittens came from, why we’re looking after them, introduce them to you and show you some of the furry munchkin fun as well as discuss what we’re planning to do with (some of) them.

While these little bundles of joy are very cute and fluffy, there is a serious issue with stray, unsterilised cats in Portugal and we’re aiming to raise some funds to cover the costs of vaccinations, microchips and sterilisation of these nine and any of the adult cats in our local area that we can help too.

For more details, check out our Go Fund Me page https://gofund.me/13f54278

If you care about cats and are able to support, we’d be very grateful.

If you’d like to adopt a kitten, there are currently FOUR available

  • Peanut (male)
  • Pinto (male)
  • Tiger (male)
  • Borlotti (female)

Yarn Projects (crochet/knitting)

Knitting Needles

I've only just started knitting again and have had to upgrade from my original Symfonie needles (they tend to snap quite easily). I have a set of stainless steel needles from ChiaoGoo and also an ebony set from Lantern Moon.

I like both! The stainless steel was a little hard to get used to but yarn really glides on them. I like the look and feel of the Lantern Moon set too, but unfortunately they don't come in all the sizes I tend to use so I now end up switching between the two sets.

Crochet Hooks

I've tried loads of different single hooks to find the 'perfect' hook. I finally found what I was looking for in the Clover soft touch range. The hook glides well and the thumb rest is really comfortable. Unfortunately they don't seem to be available in a set, so I have a jar full of all the sizes I like to use.

Tunisian Crochet Hooks

My favourites are these from Lantern Moon, they're super comfortable and glide really well, and the best bit is that they swivel. They are also compatible with the KnitPro Symfonie hooks (these seem less sturdy but also glide well).

I also have a set from ChiaoGoo made from bamboo. These are very lightweight but I find that they can snag on some yarns (a nail file often helps to make the hook head better).
