I think a good goal for me is to join Ginny and share my knitting and reading once a month. That feels doable. And so here we are 3 days into February and it has already been a "fly out of the shoots" start! Whew! And on top of the normal craziness in 8 days I will have a 15 year old (who needs a razor). I don't think I'm old enough to have a kid with facial hair!!
Oh well! Here we go!
I have one Waiting for Winter Mitten (Susan B. Anderson) done and the other about half way. I could have used these this week as we had a glorious Sunday two days ago where we were snowed in and only left the house for a walk in the open space across the street (snow boots would also be a good thing to add to my wardrobe)! This is a Madelinetosh limited dye called Nile that Dan picked out for me over at Jimmy Beans a little while back.
I (reluctantly) set aside Nikolas for a bit as I have a WHOPPER of a book club book this month; Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. It is oh so good!
And to further tempt me my amazon order came today! I got Susan B. Anderson's new Kid's Knitting Workshop, it looks like a great reference book and has some projects Fern (and I!) are already thinking about. Next: Planted: Belief and Belonging in an Age of Doubt, I've heard some great things about this and listened to the podcast Mormon Matters when they interviewed the author. Looking forward to some helpful insights. Then Mormon Feminism Essential Writings, pretty self explanatory (Exponent II has a good bit of info on it if you're looking). And then the picture book Girls Who Choose God. There will most likely be an entire post about that one as it is FABULOUS!!! There are two this is the women in the bible volume. Seriously it's AWESOME. I am in love!
*Sorry I got lazy and did not link to all the books and such. If you need more info I'm happy to supply it!
