~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading (though not at the same time!), 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! ~
Only a few more rows, and I will be ready to bind off my Simmer Dim shawl, but they are long rows! I’ve actually been more in the mood for reading this week, I think because I am loving Shadows on the Rock

Ginny,
Reading about other kids being naughty is really enjoyable! 🙂 I highly recommend: ‘Little Heathens: Hard Times and High Spirits on an Iowa Farm during The Great Depression.’ My grandma first recommended it to me. It’s funny and a pretty lighthearted read. I really enjoyed it.
Love,
Taryn
You always pick the best colors! Love that blue!
I love that color! Have you guys ever read Sterling North’s book, Rascal? I loved it as a kid and still enjoy reading it every now and then. It’s set in the 1920s (I think), they talk about the spanish influenza pandemic. After reading it as a child, I dreamed about having a raccoon as a pet. Great book.
Love, love that blue shawl. Now that I have knit myself three shawls, I am finding there are never enough shawls!
I am reading one of your Happy Reading books right now and want to thank you again for the list. thank you, thank you.
I love the colour of your shawl. I bet it’s going to look amazing. It will be worth it once you’ve finished. Sorry I’ve been away for so long. I’m getting back into things now :-).

p.s. I’ve still been reading your blog I just haven’t felt up to commenting. Thanks for being there, you’ve cheered me up.
both books sound really good and I haven’t read either of them. I love when shawls have LONG rows, so satisfying 🙂
Shadows on the Rock sounds like a book I’d like to read – I’m going to see if the library has it. And I think Seth is right – I do remember loving books where kids are naughty as a child. I was always afraid to be naughty so reading about children that were was somehow adventurous and brave to me. 🙂
Loving the colour of blue for your shawl!
Cather is kind of like that…. “nothing happens,” but it does. 😉
Love that blue, such an intense shade!
Seth is right, sounds like a good family book.
Your Seth is a wise soul! 🙂
sounds like I should read the Cather book sometime! I have LOVED the ones I read so far!! That blue is really beautiful. Looking forward to seeing it when it is finished! Blessings on your day! God’s peace within it!
