Every day, Nixie rolled the moon-mouse yarn into neat balls at the clover craft circle. Swish, tuck, pat! She liked the warm wool smell and the soft thump each ball made in the basket. But one day, the biggest ball went prrrt.
Nixie poked it with her wand. Because of that, two tiny paws popped out. Because of THAT, the yarn bounced downhill, wrapping daisies, grass, and Nixie’s ankle in silly stripes. “Hold still, you fuzzy knot!” she giggled.
At last, the hidden kitten sneezed himself free and curled right into Nixie’s arms, where the yarn was warmest. Nixie kept one loose string for pouncing and one lap for belonging. Next time you see the striped yarn ball, can you spot where the prrrt began?
