Right now I am knitting these beautiful fun stripes.
And that's as much as I'll tell you, because it's a gift and a surprise. So there. :P
I'm reading the most recent of the Song of Ice and Fire books, since it finally arrived after I reserved it at the library a month ago.
(This week I also read the two most recent Temeraire books as Emma hadn't got the time to read them herself. When I gave her Flight of Eagles back she said, "Already?! and I had to confess that I'd devoured both in two days and just not managed to bring the other to return to her!)
I have still not found the love for the Raymond Feist, so he is on the pile of "might get around to" things.
I am liking Dance with Dragons better than the last three books of the very long Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones) series. It is *very* good so far. But the book is so ridiculously huge it's unwieldy to hold, and I can't carry it around with me. *sob* Ah well. More time for knitting I guess. ;) I'm going to cast on a hat, a cardi for Talia, a shawl, AND a dress commission in the next week or two. So many projects, so little time!
I'm still wavering on reading the Game of Thrones books - partly because they are so huge!
ReplyDeleteYour stripes are looking lovely :)
Those are some yummy stripes emerging there! I look forward to the big reveal :-)
ReplyDeleteOooo a stripey surprise. I wonder what it will be?
ReplyDeleteYou are a busy bee :) I have enjoyed numerous Raymond E. Feist books before, but they take getting into.
ReplyDeleteI keep putting off the Song of Ice and Fire series though.
Are we allowed to guess? It reminds me of a blanket I made for my son - those exact colors plus black. In his case, it was a Spiderman blanket. :)
ReplyDeleteI have to admit I used to be a really big reader before William but of late I haven't read much, nothing seems to catch my fancy. At the moment I am reading a Young Adult book by John Barrowman and his sister - Hollow Earth. It's actually pretty good and an easy read for me :) I plan to move to a Barbara Erskine novel next. Loving the stripes - will we see the finished product?
ReplyDeleteLook forward to seeing what your striped project turns out to be. I have heard good things about the Game of Thrones series and it is high up on my to-read bookshelf!

surprises are the best. your stripes are cute, and your babies are gorgeous. x lori
ReplyDeleteHaha guess away, I don't think you'll get it from that angle! Claire, mamauk, might get it though haha... All will be revealed soon, I cast off today so it'll be on next week's post. :)
ReplyDeleteThankyou for the comment love, all of you! (And as biased as I am, I have to admit my babies are pretty beautiful.)
