Yarn Along

~ 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 single 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 finished the second doll sweater I was working on last week, and realized that Susan and Lucy really need shoes!  I searched through some newborn patterns on Ravelry, and  decided that the Baby Janes pattern might work.  I made some changes, and got really lucky.  These dolls have pretty funky feet.  I ended up knitting the 3-6 month size of the pattern, but switched to size 2 needles, used fingering weight yarn, and modifed the pattern just a bit to account for the dolls’ thick feet.  This is the first time I have knit anything on such tiny needles, and I love them!  I will post details on my Ravelry page soon.  Since taking this photo, I finished the second shoe of Lucy’s pair, so two more shoes to go.  They are really quick little knits.  Poor Larkspur complains that everytime I make anything for the dolls, Beatrix’s doll, Lucy, gets her’s first.  I guess Beatrix’s tears don’t work quite as well on Larkspur as they do me.
My book club is reading Josephine Tey’s The Daughter of Time this month, so that is one of the books I will be reading over the next few weeks.  Oh, and my kids are really loving Tumtum & Nutmeg: Adventures Beyond Nutmouse Hall!
Below is a linky list if you’d like to add a link to your own Yarn Along photo.

(1) Make sure the link you submit is to the URL of your blog post or your specific Flickr photo and not your main blog URL or Flickr Photostream. Please be sure and link to your current Yarn Along post, and not a Yarn Along post from a previous week.
(2) Include a link back here in your blog post or flickr photo page.
(3) Thanks for playing along!
(4) Oh, and if you have any trouble linking up, just email me and I will help you!

You can also join the Flickr Yarn Along Group to share your knitting and reading photos anytime!

I often link to resources that I and my family personally use and recommend. I participate in the Amazon associates program and if you enter Amazon.com through my blog and then make a purchase, I receive a small percentage of the sale. I never recommend a product or resource for the sole purpose of being compensated financially. If I write that we use or love something, you can trust that we do.
