Yarn Aong ~ Fanatic for felting


Joining Ginny over at Small Things for Yarn Along:
"~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading, and the evidence of this often shows up in my photographs.  I love seeing what other people are knitting and reading as well. So, what are you knitting or crocheting right now? What are you reading? ... ~"

Last week I had started reading Naomi Aldort's Raising Our Children Raising Ourselves, and still am.  But, in true form, I have to read more than one book at a time (kind of like my projects), and I know I am not the only bibliophile or yarnophile that does this :).  So I am starting Ishmael by Daniel Quinn.  I know little about this book, but will share when I know more, perhaps next week.

Meanwhile...ta-da!! My crocheted turned felted purse I started last week is finished.  I am thrilled with it, really.  If anyone is interested in the pattern, let me know, I will get it to you :).  And I am off to start a hat for my mother-in-law whose birthday is in two days.  TWO days?!!! Gotta go! Be back soon :).

  5. that purse is gorgeous - you are very clever!!

    Love the Aldort book - it goes alongside the Alfie Kohn books so well - those plus Playful Parenting are my go to's when I feel myself getting off track.

    Have just started "Radical Acceptance" by Tara Brach - think it's going to be inspiring and challenging in equal measure.

    Oh, and am crocheting a blanket for Aiyana - something I've been promising her since last September when I completed Taine's. Really need to crack on....
