Ichnology
Who could resist little kitty cat paw print gloves that can be knit up in one afternoon?
Ichnology is the branch of geology that deals with traces of organisms, such as burrows, nests, and footprints. When I was designing these little gauntlets all I could think about was how the cute little paw prints were actually quite an accurate representation about how my cats walk all over me while I try to knit, and so, being the geologist, I started imagining the lace on my gloves like little scaber toothed kitty footprints preserved in the rock record.
