Ginny at Small Things is hosting a Yarn Along each week. Since I'm in one of my knitting phases right now, I thought I'd join in the fun.

If you recall, last week's knitting was totally fun! The Nutcracker ornament is still filling my heart with joy every time I see him.



A new project which I hope to cast on this afternoon, I thought the yarn was all Caribbean Blue until I tossed it on my book for the photo op. It is cold Southern Pacific Blue! I've just started Coldwater , an imaginative Bronte revisionist story set in a desolate Australian island where their father runs a penal colony. Not the most joyous sounding of books, is it? But I do so love an imaginative tale and thus far the author has written true to the distinctive voices of the three Bronte sisters. We'll see how it pans out!
