I finished Emma's hat! I was so happy to finish it! And honestly, I think it looks adorable on her. Of course, I don't have a picture of her wearing the hat...she isn't one for posing for pictures...and I figured posting a blurry one of her running away from me wouldn't really work out too well. So here it is, in all its glory!
Now, I am not sure what to knit next. I started a skinny scarf for myself. I thought it might be something nice to have, but I'm not so sure about the color, which is a light purple, for me. I think it would fit my mom better, so she might get it for her birthday...in July :-)
Reading, well I am hoping this year to read 100 books. I think that I can probably do this, especially if I read a lot of fiction. Fiction books seem to be easy for me to get through. Of course, I have a list of non-fiction and research type books that I want to get through, so we will see how far I get!
I am currently reading A Home in Drayton Valley, which has been really sad. I will have a review on Saturday for it, once I am finished. It is a good book, but when a book starts out sad, it is harder for me to get through it!
The other book that I am reading is Blood Like Poison: For the Love of a Vampire. I got this free for the kindle (I actually have a nook, but I have a kindle app on my computer and phone as well), and it is still free if you want a new e-book to read! It reminds me a bit of Twilight, but I am only about 20 pages in. I think it will be enjoyable though, I like easy vampire reading!
Joining in at the yarn along today.
I love your goal of reading a 100 books in a year, that's fantastic. I have done 52 books, a book a week, but that is a close as I have come.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your reading quest! The hat looks lovely and snug :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a cozy hat...I would love to read more and having a gol sounds like a great plan! Good luck with yours!!
ReplyDeleteMy goal for the year is the same as last year...80 books. I give you a lot of credit for going for 100.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute hat! Looks like it will keep her really warm :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome goal of reading 100 books! Good luck :)
I'm reading The Illuminator . I've been reading it a while - I got distracted by 2 library books I'd been holding for that came in. So I read those first. Now I have returned to the Renaissance. I don't normally do that, LOL.
ReplyDeleteLove the hat!
