I am joining in with Ginny for this weeks sharing if knitting and reading and Tami for this weeks work in progress.
On the needles today is a scarf for my youngest. The yarn is from one of my favourite wool shops it is very close to a friends house so every time I visit her the shop just has to get a visit to and it's hard to come out empty handed! This yarn is hand dyed merino and is lovely to work with. I tried various stitch patterns before settling on basketweave, it is a bit lumpy at the moment but hopefully it will flatten out with blocking.
Reading wise I have been dipping in and out of this magazine this week in my rare free moments. My lovely husband bought me a subscription for my birthday so I have many more editions to look forward to.
What have you been knitting and reading this week?
Adore the colour of your scarf, it is looking fantastic.

You are so lucky to have a yarn shop near you that sells such yummy yarn!
ReplyDeleteThe scarf is lovely! What a great yarn.
ReplyDeleteTis the season for scarf knitting! :) I love the colors in that yarn - they fit together so nicely!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your youngest will put that scarf to good use! It's looking great!
ReplyDeleteJuno looks like an interesting magazine. And yes, it's the time of knitting warm and cosy things. Have a nice week!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty yarn - just what I would have picked when I was younger. The basketweave stitch looks great. I like it "bumpy" ;)

ReplyDeleteIts beautiful yarn. I too have a great LYS, but I have stopped popping in for this very reason, far too dangerous!
