Listening to The Union Quilters on audio, and I'm kind of indifferent to it at the moment. The author uses comments that real people wouldn't say. I'll reserve judgment for a bit.

UPDATE - I'm a silly, silly girl. I've stayed up until 1:49am my-time just to get my first "tooth" done on the shawl. Its a good thing this pattern is easy-peasy because this is the slippy-est, tiny-est yarn on the slippy-est, tiny-est needles. Ooomph. I'm waiting for the rhythm to kick in. At least the first tooth looks toothy. Not a good picture but this is MUCH closer to the true color of the yarn than the top picture.

Linking up with Ginny.
They let you keep your needles? Yea! And you know there is no rule that says that you have to finish a project in order to start another, otherwise knitting would cease to be a favored creative pastime.
ReplyDeleteThe Hitchhiker is a beautiful choice and your yarn is yummy. One tooth done... how many left to go? ;)
Blessings, Debbie
42 "teeth" in total! Now I've gotten two teeth done and am well into my third. Whew.
DeleteI hope you can get ahold of the Uprooted book. It might strike too many cords! The author also moved because of her husband's PhD work. I'd love to know what your husband is studying. Mine is away this summer doing language intensives. Then we are going back to where he did his PhD and that's going to be extremely wonderful to see everyone and then heartache all over again to leave. Such is this life.......
