Knitting This Week
6:00 AMIt's Wednesday again and that means it is time for the weekly yarn along. I'm joining with Ginny and everyone to share yarn and books. Once again, knitting has been slow, I've been working on the silent auction sweater. I did manage to knit up a little cup cozy for Miss C's teacher for the Christmas basket.
Teacher V is a coffee drink. I always see her with a mug in her hand, so I thought it was only fitting to knit her a cup cozy. The pattern I used is Cuter Than Caribou which is a little ironic because we are also giving her a Starbucks mug and gift card. Caribou Coffees are few and far between here in Colorado.
I've been reading slowly as well. I have been reading a Breathe of Eyre for weeks now. I just have a hard time getting into it. I read it, I put it down, I read it, I put it down. I'm also reading The Wrong Mother by Sophie Hannah. I had a hard time getting into it as well, although once I'm reading it I like the story. I must be in a reading funk right now. Which is too bad because I've got a lot of books I need and want to read.
Happy Yarn Along Wednesday!

ReplyDeleteI have been looking for a cup cozy pattern. Lisa asked for one, so after her standing in all those lines at Rhinebeck I wanted to make it for her for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI knit a whole bunch of cup cozy's and mailed them to my daughter since she wanted to hand them out to teachers, they make wonderful gifts and I adore yours!
ReplyDeleteSuch a thoughtful gift! I agree that coffee (or tea) gifts are nice and always appreciated! :)
