Reading: Steps in Time, by Fred Astaire. It's a little slow at the moment, to be honest. I'm still reading about his time in vaudeville, and I'm much more interested in his years spent in classic movies. :) Also, the writing feels very detached and unemotional...I don't feel like I'm getting to know Mr. Astaire very much.
Knitting: I'm knitting a Stripe Study Shawl. I'm at that point that you always reach with shawls when they're too big to really see your progress, but not big enough to feel that you're almost done. Even more so with this one because the yarn is fingering weight, so progress is slow. But I really love the yarns I'm using, so I hope the end result will be worth it. :)

I haven't knit a shawl in ages,mounds so lovely. This post is making my fingers itch...
ReplyDeleteI've really gotten into knitting shawls over the past year or so, even though they always hit a point where they seem incredibly slow. :) Hopefully you can cast on a shawl soon!
DeleteI have a very fine crochet shawl that I've been doing on and off for months, I know what you mean about progress seeming slow!
ReplyDeleteExactly! I'm trying to embrace slower projects, but sometimes it's frustrating. :)
DeleteHow disappointing to feel that both your knitting and reading are going too slow right now. The shawl looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteWell, it's okay! :) I'll keep plugging away and they'll both be done eventually, ha. Thanks!
DeleteOh that will be a beautiful shawl!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
