Knitters Without Cats

What is it with knitters and cats? There's a lot of knitting content on the web, and most of it seems to include cats. Why? I have no stinkin' idea. This is a catfree knitting zone. If you are also one of this rare breed of knitter, please send me a note so I know I'm not the only one. Or better yet, upload your knitting work to the flickr.com group of the same name and it'll show randomly below.

Now, if I could just figure out how to do the logo without a cat in it.
