I am starting the final color of my blanket - a deep purple, Porterfield Plum, from Peace Fleece. Hoping to get it done while the weather is still cool.
I borrowed this book from the library and am really enjoying it - short essays from quilters- some nostalgic and some funny but all make me want to learn more about quilting and do it.
Joining in with Ginny today and looking forward to finding out what you are knitting and reading.
Warm wishes,
Tonya
That rainbow blanket is so lovely! What a fun way to snuggle. :) The book sounds fascinating. I'll see if I can find it at my library.
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine the many years of cuddling that will go on under that gorgeous knitted blanket! The colours are so warm and lively. Beautiful work!!
ReplyDeleteI've just learned to use a drop spindle!

Your colors are beautiful on your blanket. And if it's as cool for you this week as it is for us, then it's the perfect project to be working on!
ReplyDeleteI'm struggling along with my second knit project (well, third really, if you count the scraf!) Determined to keep at it, though.
Oh the blanket is looking so pretty... m.
ReplyDeleteYour blanket looks so cuddly and warm; gorgeous colors!
ReplyDeleteLove your blanket. That is my favorite shade of purple! Looks like a book I would love to read :)
ReplyDeleteI love the cover of that book so much!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blanket, love book cover.
ReplyDeleteHave you encountered Knit Lit? It is essays and short fiction about knitting--very entertaining.
ReplyDeleteThat is such an interesting book! May have to try and find it too!
