Joining Kat and friends for Unraveled Wednesday with a Hitchhiker that is pure comfort knitting. Now that I've received my new needle (and a spare) I can just keep knitting, finding calm along the way, and ignoring the news.
Way back when I started this last summer, Margene said it looked like it had the colors of a stormy night to the bright light of dawn, so that is now the official poetic name of the project.
I've been knitting more than reading, so I haven't finished any books this week. I am still listening to A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, and have also started Monogamy and Real Life. I hope I can finish a couple of them before next week.
What are you making and reading this week?
Please ignore the above. Either it is too early for me to be on my computer, or the computer has gone crazy. Your Hitchhiker is going to be absolutely beautiful, Bonny. I love that transition of colors. Happy, happy Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteI really love how that Hitchhiker is gradually changing! I need to keep my eyes open for those blanks at the Loopy Ewe!
ReplyDeleteOh, yes! What Margene said! It is going to be just lovely, Bonny. And it looks like the perfect thing to keep your attention focused on right now. XO
ReplyDeleteLove this Hitchhiker -- that gradient is so calming! I'm so glad you're all set on the needle front so that you can continue with it.
ReplyDeleteThat sure is a gorgeous gradient for your latest Hitchhiker. Love the name too!!
ReplyDeletelove the colors and the rich deepness of them.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful Bonny! I think I'd like a blank as well. I'm knitting round and round on my sweater and reading This Tender Land. Love me some William Kent Krueger.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope Margene's words and your knitting are prophetic and they come together in November!
ReplyDeleteditto what Carole said! and so grateful for the comfort of knitting (and books).
ReplyDeleteBonny your hitchhiker is beautiful . Im listening to some fun podcasts. No true reading other than blogs . The weather is too nice and we are out gardening , paddle boarding and cycling. We are so grateful for the amazing Summer weather in Wisconsin this year, and this bonus week! I just saw Mars and another planet with my new binoculars . Spectacular.
ReplyDeleteI love the dark rich colors of the latest hitchhiker. Fingers crossed it does indeed take us through the stormy night to a new day. Keep on knitting.
ReplyDeleteThank you for allowing me to name your beautiful Hitchhiker! Knitting with a book or taking a walk (often with a book) or (even) cleaning my house with a book, has been my salvation. I haven't been checking in with my friends because the computer turns into a time suck. I'm so happy to see you!
