Yarn Along time!
I finished the sweater I started last week. It came out pretty cute, if I do say so, and I hope the customer likes it.
In literature news, I finished A Girl of the Limberlost, and I started reading The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
A Girl of the Limberlost was an interesting read.
It was almost like two separate books, one about the main character Elnora's relationship with her mother, and a second one about her efforts to get into college.
Limberlost was written in 1909, and it is always fascinating to me to read books written in a different era.
I love the view of daily life of the time that comes through the writing.
I have so thoroughly enjoyed the new Sherlock series on Masterpiece Mystery and it sparked my interest to read the original stories.
The first story I read was short and fun and I can't wait to read some more.
What's on your needles this week?
I love all your added detail for your cardigan. And the color is one of my favorites to knit with. Sherlock Holmes--wow what a big undertaking--I can't wait to hear your thoughts!
ReplyDeleteI adore your commissioned sweater--it turned out lovely!!! (I have the second season Sherlock right by my computer---library just got it in!!! I'm loving it, too!)
ReplyDeleteMy daughter, a speed reader, has just read through the two volumes of The Complete Sherlock Holmes for the second time. She really loves reading them.
