This is what happens when you leave your knitting outside during the night. It got wet. We were so tired last night that I left my knitting bag on the porch and there was a big shower early this morning. Oh well, luckily it was the cotton project I’m working on (potholders again), not the wool one. This will dry a lot sooner, I think.
I finished reading four books by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee and I think that is enough for now. It’s fun to read them, but the idea of stash building (or actually not being able to do that) started to haunt me and that’s not fun at all (not her fault, I’m just susceptible to worrying right now.
The book in the picture I found in the free library at the supermarket. It’s an older book (1970’s) by a Curaçaoan woman about a girl moving to the Netherlands and then back to the island and how she copes with all things related to that. I hope it’s a bit more uplifting than the cover suggests, but I really want to learn more about the people on this island.
This morning I’m also driving into town to pick up my order from Amazon. It took a month to arrive here and I have to pay taxes before I get it, but then I will be the owner of Elizabeth Zimmerman’s ‘The Opinionated Knitter’.
It’s been on my wishlist ever since Amanda wrote about it, so I’m really happy about this. Can’t wait to start reading it!
