Print Reading: Come, Thou Tortoise by Jessica Grant. I've just started this, and while it's a little quirky so far, it's interesting quirky as opposed to weird quirky. I had some trouble finding a copy, but that just made me want to read it even more. It was a happy coincidence that my knitting bag matches my book!
Audiobook: One Summer: America, 1927 by Bill Bryson. I don't have a lot of interest in the 1920s, but I am very interested in reading anything written by Bill Bryson, especially when he narrates it himself. I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to 17 glorious hours of Bill Bryson reading to me!
Knitting: My Heart Belongs to Blue and Hitchhiking Who Knows Where. I'm going to hear Temple Grandin speak tonight and needed a take-along project that doesn't require counting so I decided to start my third Hitchhiker with a couple of yarns I found in my stash.
What are you reading and knitting this week? Join in this week's Yarn Along, with Ginny at Small Things.
I love your project bag! Hitchhiker is a fun knit. Great travel knitting!
ReplyDeleteI love the Hitchhiker pattern and I'm seeing it everywhere at the moment. One for my to-knit list, I think!
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh when I read your post about having trouble finding a book so that made you want to read it even more, I'm the same way.
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear you liked The Secret History, my sister loved it and is the one who told me I needed to read it.
Beautiful Hitchhiker!
