While I knit something conventional and wearable, Felix occupied himself with creating an intricate web all over the house.

He told me that he was knitting a trap for his artist Dad. He also declared himself a top designer. "I am Top Designer!"

And, "I am the best knitter!" I was really proud of him, and didn't mind at all that he used an entire cone of fine mercerized cotton or that we spent 48 hours trying to navigate the web and tripping through the house.

Finally, he had to finish his homework. You can tell he wasn't that excited about it. Yeah, coloring in circles isn't necessarily as interesting as being a spider.
