So.... The first mistake was leaving my Yarn project bag on the floor next to the couch. The second was leaving the dog slightly unattended.... I left with my friend Henry to go see a movie at the iPic Theater in Redmond. We left at 7:25pm and we walked back thru the door a little bit before 11pm... Walking thru the door and mind you I am so tired with a second late night that what I see on the floor is so colorful and I can't figure out what it is. My brain is not registering.... I keep looking and slowly my brain starts connecting the dots... "Noooooooooooooooo"!!!!
The dog had sniffed out the mints that were in my bag and then drug out my yarn with the project still on the needles..... she chewed thru my baggie of highlighter pens, baggies of all sizes daisy buttons, baggie of black elastic. She even bit through a brand new rain poncho that I was bringing home to put in my Sounders FC game bag - In case it rains at a game.... LOL
The horror to look down and see your yarn all over the place and know Lucy (Dog) wasn't in it alone... her accomplice ZuZu (Cat) must have had fun playing with it all...
I am soooooooo Thankful that to that end not one stitch was dropped off my needles and the yarn was easily balled back up again.
So now I have Project back in hand to knit today during the Sounders Game.
Hooray - It could have been very very bad and it turned out ok... I will not be leaving my yarn project bag on the floor again.

Oh my. That is not fun to come home to. Atleast they didn't destroy your project. I have been through that with kids and pets. My oldest used to un-knit things for me. Or grab my knitting and be knitting it for me when I would come back in the room. And that was when she was really small and could be contained in one place. Born to knit!
