Yarn Along

~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading, and the evidence of this often shows up in my photographs.  I love seeing what other people are knitting and reading as well. So, what are you knitting or crocheting right now? What are you reading? Take a photo and share it either on your blog or on Flickr. Leave a link below to share your photo with the rest of us! ~

Today was the first day we used our woodstove this season.  I’ve been cold all week, but right now, sitting here on Tuesday evening, it’s hot in here.  I’m waiting on my next fiction read to arrive, and have been reading The Beekeeper’s Handbook whenever I can.  I am working on Beatrix’s Bulle, and hoping to have it finished soon now that the weather is cold.

 

Grab a button for your post or sidebar! Visit the Yarn Along page for additional button colors!
Below is a linky list if you’d like to link up and join the Yarn Along.
(1) Make sure the link you submit is to the URL of your blog post or your specific Flickr photo and not your main blog URL or Flickr Photostream. Please be sure and link to your current Yarn Along post, and not a Yarn Along post from a previous week.
(2) Include a link back to this post in your blog post or on your flickr photo page so that others who may want to join the Yarn Along can find us!
(3) If you have any trouble linking up, just email me and I will help you!
You can also join the Flickr Yarn Along group to share your knitting and reading photos anytime!

    Oh, your woodstove. I would love to have one some day. In the meantime I’m layering wool and still shivering.

    Thanks for hosting us all!

    There’s something about the color of yarn you’ve chosen and the pairing of the colors and sound of a wood stove that is just downright perfect.

    Oh, also. Now that you’ve been sharing Bulles in that colorway for a while, I’m having a hard time imagining them being any other color! I want to make one for Elisabeth — and as much as I really wanted something for myself out of that colorway, it might have to be her Bulle!

    Isn’t that wonderful, that switch from being cold all week to firing up the woodstove and suddenly the house is so hot you’ve got to open windows?

    Beekeeping has always fascinated me. I wish I weren’t terrified of them! If we had a woodstove, I would live in front of it all winter…so warm and inviting.

    It is cold here this morning and I wish I had a fire. We bring our wood stove in for the winter and
    out for the rest of the year since we don’t need it very often so I guess I know what the plan is for
    today!
