Oops, I see one beige in the dark section that I have to move to the light section. If the colors look a little wild, I agree! This will be UNDER the bedspread so I can go as wild as I like. |

I have finished several sweaters but just need some good modeled photos. Coming soon! |
I just finished reading The Coworker by Freida McFadden. A good read with a nice twist at the end. As of this post, it's only .99 if you have a subscription to Audible, and free for your Kindle. Next up for me is Ward D. As of this post it's free if you have an Audible subscription and free on Kindle. I'm cleaning and posting about that on Monday. Have a good weekend. :)

I'll be curious to see how you decide what colors to use and where. What inspiration!! sharon s,
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon. Now I'm getting cold feet and wondering if I should just do black and white? I've half a mind to start adding reds and yellows right away and then there will be no going back!
DeleteIt was nice to read your post to see what you are knitting and reading. Thank you for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteLove to read about your projects and recommendations. Long ago I decided to do the bedding like the Scandinavians do: each spouse has his/her own blanket or duvet. No more hoarding the covers!
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of that! Brilliant! I sleep with a blanket hoarder, and when we make the bed together and it's obvious that all the blankets are pulled to his side, he accuses me of pushing blankets to his side in the middle of the night. Seriously.
DeleteI can't wait to see the post of your new "quilt" pattern sweater.
ReplyDeleteOuuu, it's a goodie and was so fun to make.
DeleteI have been working on almost exactly the same thing! But by Snufflebean using kfb instead of yo’s plus it has directions for lengthening the square if you want a rectangle. Using a hoard of Lion Brand. Love your book recommendations. Always want a book on my nightstand. Chloe
ReplyDeleteThere are so many great patterns available that gobble up our stash. I love so many of the Lion Brand products. We'll have to see the FO! Have your read any of those books by Freida? I'm finding that not all are great, but the great ones are really fun if you like mysteries.
DeleteI am in the midst of knitting a blanket/throw. I made one that I finished as November was ending. I have knit a number of blanket/throws.
ReplyDeleteI am always interested in knowing what others are making and what they want to make in the future.
You make my day when you make a comment!
