So I&#8217;m not quite sure yet where I&#8217;ll land yet on a print read, but it might be the comic collection of <em>Check, Please!: Sticks and Scones<\/em> by Ngozi Ukazu, about a hockey team at a small New England liberal arts college. I also wrapped up an audiobook this week, but I&#8217;ve moved on to <em>A Deadly Inside Scoop<\/em> by Abby Collette, the first in a new cozy mystery series set at an ice cream parlor in the Cleveland suburbs. I&#8217;m finding the reader&#8217;s style distracting and, for the first time, have sped up the speed in an attempt to see if that makes her less off putting. If it doesn&#8217;t, I may need to switch to paper on that one.<\/p>\n<p>With my rainbow socks at the heel, I&#8217;m also feeling a little disconnected from my knitting. But I&#8217;ve started carrying around the bag that contains the Lightning Shawl, my oldest semi-active UFO, so I&#8217;m inclined to think that wants to come out of hibernation again. When I pulled it out of the bag to photograph, I discovered the needle and project had become detached, so some actual unraveling was necessitated to get the two reconnected once again. I think this had gone into timeout in its final strip because I&#8217;m working with scraps at this point and there was a weird blending that happened at the very midpoint of the shawl that looked unpleasantly obvious, so I don&#8217;t think that will end up having been even a minor setback. But wouldn&#8217;t it be great if 2021 were the year this finally became a  wearable item, eight years after I started it?<\/p>\n<p>Head over to <a href=\"http:\/\/askatknits.com\/2021\/04\/28\/unraveled-wednesday-4-28-21\/\">As Kat Knits<\/a> for the weekly roundup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just last night I wrapped up Murder on Cold Street, the latest Lady Sherlock novel by Sherry Thomas, and I&#8217;m still feeling a bit of a reading hangover from my favorite series, not quite willing to let go of my thoughts about Charlotte and Livia and Mrs. Watson and Ash.
