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 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 set aside my bigger knitting projects to secretly knit up a couple of doll sweaters for my girls’ stockings this week.  Beatrix came into the room when I was trying to sneak this photograph and kept trying to grab my knitting, asking what it was.  I told her “not to worry about it.”  But for some reason that didn’t really satisfy her three year old self.  She reached out and grabbed the ball of tosh vintage, squeezed it, rubbed it against her cheek, and I kid you not said, “Wow, this is amazing.”  I confess, I felt rather pleased with her in that moment.
I read Truman Capote’s A Christmas Memory this week for my book club.  I love this short, satisfying story.  It’s amazing how much great discussion it generated at my book club meeting.  I highly recommend it!

Keats is joining me for the Yarn Along this week.  He got tired of waiting for me to cast on a vest for him, and did so himself.  I am helping him knit a Milo vest using Knit Picks Chroma (I’m not allowed to knit a single stitch, only to help him navigate the pattern and teach new techniques as needed.)  Keats is currently reading Dr. Dolittle’s Garden, and has been for some time now; maybe longer even than I have been reading Howard’s End (give me another week!)

Below is a linky list if you’d like to link up and join the Yarn Along.  Don’t forget to link back to this post so that others can join us.  The Yarn Along is about sharing with each other!
(**And those of you posting crochet projects, don’t forget to add the word “crochet” next to your name to make yourself easier for other crocheters to find! )
(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 to this post in your blog post or on your flickr photo page so that others who may want to join the Yarn Along can find us!
(3) If you have any trouble linking up, just email me and I will help you!
