~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading, and the evidence of this often shows up in my photographs.
I love seeing what other people are knitting and reading as well. So, what are you knitting or crocheting right now? What are you reading? Take a photo and share it either on your blog or on Flickr. Leave a link below to share your photo with the rest of us! ~
I have spent most of my knitting time lately working on this little shawl, but also cast on a lace scarf over the weekend. I am in love with the color of the yarn I am using, so soft and pretty (It’s Sweet Basil fingering 80/10/10 in “sookie.”) The rows are only 36 stitches across, so I can pick this up and knit a row here and there even though I have to pay attention to the pattern ever other row.
I am having some reading issues, which translates to reading more than two books at a time. In addition to Howard’s End, I started reading Joy in the Morning last week. I have it out from the library and as I renewed it for the fourth time, I decided that I better go ahead and read it. So far it’s a sweet story (by Betty Smith, the same author as A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.) Jonny and I also decided to have a little book club of our own, because I was given a second copy of The Lessons of Saint Francis. Our plan is to read one chapter each week and discuss. The book is divided into chapters on simplicity, compassion, humility, creativity, and other worthy topics. I keep picking up Jonny’s copy by mistake and losing his page when I remark it.
Below is a linky list if you’d like to add a link to your own Yarn Along photo.
