Well all righty little lady! I read and knit every day and I can't accomplish all that reading in one year. When I look over your reading list I only see three books we've had in common last year. I belong to 2 book clubs and still run out of reading materials so I have to supplement from various important feminist works and important classics I may have missed in HS, college, or graduate school. Where do you find you reading inspiration list?
Ok, ok, I've been working really hard on the Downton Abbey MKAL since Jan. I chose to use lots of beads and have now come to the conclusion, since I do love beads, I should probably invest in a Fleegle Beader. Then in March I signed up for a challenge to complete 4 UFO' s, April, May, June, and July. Last I heard the next to last day in June I was the only one to hand in my June FO. Only a few more rows on this Downton Abbey MKAL and it's a cast off! So I may win $100 worth of yarn for being the only one in the contest who completed all objects.
Oh yeah, then it's on to the Orange is the New Black Binge MKAL that I received last month. Everyone binge watched but I don't have that capability to stream. So I'll just happily tote around my bright Orange Lorna's Laces Tomfoolrey. The colors are so happy!
I think I would die if I had to knit a hat every day. I make a bunch in the late fall, early winter for " The Attic" a safe place for lesbian, gay, bi and trans teens in Philadelphia. They are most appreciative as I believe most people don't think that coming out can still leave you homeless. So they don't get donations like other charities. PLUS I get to make them in happy rainbow colors.
Ok blogger, off to complete another row of Downton Abbey before heading to bed to read.
