ON THE NEEDLES

Stash Yarn – Cascade 220, Savona Rose

Socks on a Plane are sort of hibernating at the moment as the first one is way too small. I’ve been trying to delude myself that they’re just “snug”. They’re past snug, they’re too small, even too small for Bigmommy, who has teeny feet. Dang.

BOOKLOVE 4/9/14

I’m still reading Victoria Sweet’s God’s Hotel. Very interesting, premodern medicine, I’d never thought too much about it. Learning something new every time I pick it up.

Linking with Tami and KCCO Frontier Dreams, along with Ginny’s Yarn along.

BY THE BOOK

I finished Orphan Train yesterday, a little disappointed with the ending, but a great read overall and am planning to start Stephen Gallagher‘s The Bedlam Detective today, with a couple of others that are waiting in the wings, Life of Pi and The Devil in Pew Number Seven. I’m trying to be patient, I’m at my 10 book checkout limit and so must wait until the next two books expire. Yet another instance of Mr. Iknead’s austerity plan, which, I have to admit, is good practice for me. I don’t consider myself really impatient, more, umm, excitable would be a good word.
