Yarn Along





I ordered 2 skeins of this delicious Malabrigo Rios from Jellywares, a few weeks ago, in colourway Lettuce. The colour is so beautiful and I love the exquisite softness of the yarn. I am currently knitting it up into a Very Simple Garter Stitch Shawl. So far it is very simple!


I finished Little House in Big Woods a few weeks back and was waiting on an order of books. They arrived on Monday, so now I am reading Little House on the Prairie.

Joining in with Ginny and friends for the Yarn Along.

    I love the Little House books, so many interesting ways people lived back then, and how many I wish I knew how to do. That color is beautiful too! I love greens :-)

      Yes, it seems a world away from the lives we lead today, but I've found it so informative!

    I have the Little House books on almost constant rotation - I find them so inspiring.
    Your lettuce yarn is gorgeous - I'm such a fan of green!

      Free Time!! It sounds like a luxury ;) I use knitting/crochet as my daily meditation and a bit of time out from 2 busy boys. Good luck with your exams!

    That wool is delicious! I've been re-reading the little house books with my boys, I'd forgotten how much I love those books!

    what a lovely colour. I sometimes wish my job was to make up names for yarn colours, don't you?

    I love this color way! The little house series. I was thinking about it as we traveled west to help our daughter move last week, the plains were beautiful.
