~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading and I love sharing my projects and current reads here. I would love for you to join me every Wednesday to share a single photo of what you are knitting (or crocheting) and reading too! Share your photo on your blog, on Instagram (#yarnalong), or on Flickr. Leave a link below to share your photo with the rest of us!~
I’m just about halfway through The Winthrop Woman now. I am not sure that I am enjoying it more than I did Katherine, but maybe? It’s been awhile since I read that one. I’m trying to knit furiously on my Emiliana shawl because I am anxious to start knitting with my purple yarn. I still have a ways to go.
Larkspur is is creating Christmas gifts for her dolls. More specifically, I think she is making a store full of Christmas gifts for her dolls. She is such a planner. Christmas gifts are not on my radar yet, and probably won’t be until late November at the earliest.

She’s so sweet. I need to take a leaf out of her book. About Katherine (Ms Seyton’s) I just can’t go past it. I might try. Thanks for the inspiration. Katie
Christy says
I remember when she made homemade crayons for one of the boys birthday. She’s a lovely thoughtful one, that Larkspur.

I looked up the shawl pattern on Raverly and have favourited it. I absolutely love it and look forward to seeing yours! You knit such lovely items! This shawl has made it to the list (of many things) I would like to knit. I think that is so sweet of Larkspur to make gifts for her dolls. I wish I had thought of that when I was little!

Christmas gifts! Don’t hate me – but I’m FINISHED with not only my shopping, but my wrapping too! *grin*
Shannon Meyer says
That shawl is going to be gorgeous in white and purple, but I can definitely understand wanting to move on from just knitting white!! Just found your blog today and will start following, and maybe join in on your knitalong next week:)

Hi Ginny! That looks like a fun shawl. Oh, Larkspur! She’s such a little woman.
I read Katherine at your suggestion and loved it! Thank you!
Linda says
First, let me say I love that photo! It just is very artistic…
And…I love that shawl – are there short rows involved?

What a beautiful shawl! Oh Christmas… I always think I’m going to try harder earlier but never do!!
Barbara says
Beautiful shawl, Ginny! My daughter looked up the pattern and I gasped with delight…secretly hoping she’ll make this for me one day since I’m not much of a knitter. Are you reading this Violet?
