~ 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! ~

Rhiannon and I LOVED reading The Penderwicks a few times.
Brigitte says
On books, I ordered Bel Ria for my animal – loving college age daughter on your recommendation and she likes it. Gives her a nice break from her animal science major. She is working with the new lambs and goats at her college!

I love the brown yarn with a touch of blue trim around the edges. And I LOVE that pattern.
Love,

Haven’t come across the Penderwicks here (in the UK). See from the Amazon description that it has an Arundel estate. We going camping in Arundel (town near the South coast of England) for a weekend in the summer. It does have a large castle. Wonder if that’s where the author got the name from.

Oh, oh! We love the Penderwicks!!!!
Josee says
A sweater for next winter. Wow Ginny I’m impressed 🙂

Just put Clara’s War on hold at the library and will pick it up tomorrow. Somehow I’ve never heard of that book but my Jewish daughter’s name is Clara and I feel inclined to read it. Thanks for sharing!

Back on track again…
We have been ill, all four of us in this house and many of the children I take care of in my daycare/preeschool.
I am not sure if all is well yet but we´re doing our best to live our ordinary life again!

My kids have the Penderwicks and I keep trying to get them interested but it’s not happening. Perhaps I’ll follow your example and pick it up myself 😉

Joy says
Silas’s sweater looks so soft and cozy. The Penderwicks is a great read. 🙂
Clair says
Oh gosh, I can remember selecting The Penderwicks from my elementary school library. I think if I went back there today, I could find the exact place on the shelf where I got it. I’m not sure why that memory stands out so strongly…I hardly remember the book itself! Maybe I should pick it up again…
Thanks for the lovely link up as always!
karen says
