Today’s Yarning Along<\/a> shot shows you two projects I’m working on:<\/p>\n

\"Yarning<\/a>
\n<\/center><\/p>\n

The knitting, cast on this evening, is the project for the class<\/a> I mentioned last week. I’m learning how to knit two socks on a single circular needle over the course of four weeks in June. This week’s class was devoted to casting on, so you see I’ve got a couple rows on a pair of socks. The yarn is Holiday Yarn’s Flock Sock in the Yarn Fairy self-striping colorway. It’s wound for two-at-a-time knitting, with both strands of yarn emerging together from a center-pull ball. The staff at the yarn store were excited by the idea of it and suggested they might see about carrying it.<\/p>\n

<\/a>The book is Etta and Otto and Russell and James<\/em> by Emma Hooper and is the story of an 83-year-old woman who decides to walk 3,000 km alone to see the ocean for the first time. One of you recommended it last month on your blog, but I can’t find whom it was just right now.<\/p>\n

I’m reading it as part of the #TBRTakedown challenge Leaning Lights<\/a> is running this week. Since I picked this up at the library last week, it counts as a book from my most recent library haul. I’m not firmly committed to matches in the other categories, although Fablehaven<\/em> and Ms. Marvel Vol. 2<\/em> are probably going to be the two series finishers:<\/p>\n

Challenges:
\n1. A book that’s been on your TBR shelf over a year!
\n2. An unread sequel sitting on your TBR shelf.
\n3. A first book in a series on your TBR shelf.
\n4. An “out of your comfort zone” book on le TBR shelf!
\n5. A book from your most recent book haul!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
