This week I am still reading Minister's Wooing by Harriet Beecher Stowe. I am enjoying the language - even reading aloud to myself, but I haven't found the story all that engaging. I am not sure if I will finish it or not.
But, I have been really enjoying reading Wandering Through Winter by Edwin Way Teale - He wrote four books (one for each season) back in the 60's or - each about travelling across the country during each season. It is fun to learn geography and also about nature and animals, etc.
For knitting, Abraham has requested some purple mittens for his birthday next week. I just decided to add a brown stripe.
Looking forward to sharing all of the reading and knitting today at Ginny's Yarn Along.
Warm wishes,
Tonya
