-:- yarn along - damson & her fearful symmetry

Today I'm joining Ginny at Small Things for her weekly Yarn Along (again!)

I made a lot of knitting progress on my recent trip - but didn't read a page of my book the entire time. There's something about long commutes that makes me too tired to read at the end of the day. And there's something about flying that makes me read the same sentence over and over and over again.

So with the due date for the Happiness Project looming on the horizon,

I've decided to just stop reading, put it back on hold, and wait for it to be my turn again.

And in its place, I've started reading Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger
who also wrote the Time Traveler's Wife (which I have not read).



This is a ghost story, which appeals to me right now and seems appropriate given Halloween is right around the corner. It also takes place, for the most part, in London, which also (eternally) appeals to me.

And even with all of my knitting progress, Damson is still not complete.

I am almost there, though, and will hopefully be done before the weekend.

I've made several mistakes,
so that, paired with the state of my yarn, will make for quite a quirky shawl.

But I think I will love it anyway.

I can't wait to see what all of you are knitting and reading!
