This week I am still plodding along with Judah's hat.  I've made considerable progress but managed to injure one of my fingers slightly so I am having a forced break.  I'm a little bit disappointed as I had picked up momentum.  Oh, well!  We will have winter weather for another month and half so I still have time.  :D I'm still reading "The Sisters Brothers" by Patrick DeWitt.

 

This week I received some beautiful yarn in the mail as a gift from a dear friend. Remember the lovely discontinued Malabrigo Aquarella yarn I was using for the Ovate Shawl?  I now have another ball of it in another wonderful colour way.  Here it is!  Thank you, Ainsley!

 

I tried out Yarn Box for three months.  I chose the sock box as it was both more affordable and also a smaller project size to tackle.  I have yet to make a pair of socks!  I've cancelled my subscription for now, not because I am dissatisfied but rather because I have enough unfinished (and un-started!) projects at the moment.  The last shipment of yarn is so drool-worthy though that I think I will make the last pair of socks up first.  I've captured the colour as best I could but this photo still doesn't do the turquoise blue justice.
