Before you start wondering, no, I dont want to eat yarn. Though some of the colors are yummy enough that they look like candy.
I have a dog — technically, my dad has a dog — that apparently likes the taste of yarn. I try to keep it out of reach so she can’t get to it, but it doesn’t always work.
I had an appointment in Oklahoma City yesterday. When we got home yesterday afternoon, it was almost 100dF. When it was time for dinner, we didn’t want to heat up the house by cooking in the kitchen. We went to town to grab a quick bite. We got home and there was yarn strewn all over the living room.
Ellie had somehow got one of my yarn bags and took it to the living room where she empied it and played with the yarn.
This bag had a shawl I’ve finished for my Grandma but not given to her yet. The yarn is bison down/silk. Thankfully, the shawl was still intact and there were no holes in it. Well… No unwanted holes in it.
She almost got my pretty Furls crochet hook out of its case. The hook is fine. The case is a little worse for wear.
I thought that bag had been out of her reach, but apparently not. I just have to get smarter than the dog again.
Do any of your pets have a taste for your supplies? Or have you ever had a pet that did? Leave a comment and let’s chat.
