I hadn't planned a Yarn Along post this week, but I received a book in the mail today, from my dear friend, Barb, and I happened to have blocked this sweet little sweater yesterday (now it just needs buttons, and to be photographed, and to be listed in my shop), so it really seemed destined to be.
The sky in Ohio, however, has been gray for all but about 10 minutes for the last two weeks, including today. I did my best and my book even matches my little tiny sweater (yarn -- KnitPick's Shine Worsted in Clarity).
This is the book I whined about not finishing last week, and today, voila, it appeared in my mailbox -- the real paper version -- You Are All Welcome Here by Elizabeth Berg. Thanks, Barb!
Join Ginny at Small Things for more ideas on knitting and good reads.
Beautiful sweater!!
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my favorite books. That and The Year of Pleasures.
ReplyDeleteI am only about a quarter of the way in -- the characters are delightful!
DeleteSo pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Elisa. I added sweet little pearled white buttons yesterday. So cute. And finished!
DeleteThat sweater is simply gorgeous, Barbara!! You are truly gifted in the craft.
