Yarn Along

Well, I'm working on quite a few projects at the moment... that hat for my uncle? Yeah... after having to start over numerous times, I gave it up because it was taking a long time, and now I'm doing a scarf.

This is definitely going better than the hat was, I'm just kind of bummed that the project has been taking so long. Especially since it's practically spring. :P

This next scarf I'm working on is for the Etsy shop I want to start soon, hopefully in April.

It's warm, yet open - a good spring scarf. :)

This NEXT scarf I'm knitting for my sister's birthday, which is on Sunday. I'm going to have to work hard at it to get it finished by then, but I love the colors!

For reading, I've been reading books with information about rabbits. I'm hopefully going to get Angora rabbits in late May, and though I read a lot about rabbits when we thought we might get them LAST year, I thought it best if my memory could be refreshed... so, yes. That's been fun!

And, since I seem to be in the habit of posting random pictures at the end of my posts, here is a picture I took of my younger sister today outside, since the weather was sooo lovely today! As you can see, the picture has been highly edited. I rather like it. So does my sister. ;)

Thanks to Ginny over at Small Things  for hosting the yarn-along!

Yarn Along

Well, for my first yarn-along I am going to show you some pictures of a hat I am knitting for my uncle!

Yeah.... it used to look like this:

But then I was trying to switch from the circular needle to four double-point needles and it was all twisted and weird and then I dropped stitches... and since I thought the stripes were uneven in one spot anyways I just started over. :P

Now, what I'm reading! Well, I just got a book from the library with like 210 Grimm's fairytales in it?? Of course, most of them are under 10 pages long. And there's lots of pictures!

I've been wanting to read some original Grimm's fairy tales for a while now (along with original Shakespeare) and finally requested this one from the library and it came in today! I've read the first three so far. I've heard that the originals of some are pretty gruesome in places.... like in Cinderella... but so far I haven't encountered anything too creepy. I've only read the first three stories though.

And now, because I want to, here is a picture of this past Saturday's breakfast we had, because it was National Ice Cream for breakfast day and I never got to do a blog post about that.

Waffles, ice cream and sausages on the side. Yummy!
