A New Song and More Blanket Stripes

I am finally making some real progress on 

the blanket!

At least three more stripes are needed before

I can work on a boarder.

As you can see, I am still on a Jan Karon kick!

Finished book # 3, don't yet have book # 4 so am reading 

#5 instead which is A New Song

I am pleased with the 'textured look' of this blanket...

My goal is for it to be a long lap blanket to sit curled up in

when reading a book and drinking tea.

What are you reading and creating?

A Light in the Window, GKC & Blanket Stripes

My textured Blanket is progressing!

I admit to feeling impatient with it,

as it feels like I am never making the progress 

I mean to make!

But I have done a few stripes since last week

so am pleased with that...

And I am pleased with how it is going

and think it will be a great and warm

lap blanket!!

I am on a Jan Karon kick.

Explains how why my wish for 

even more blanket progress 

is not happening! :)

I am just enjoying the Fr. Tim saga a lot;

I read it years ago and it is a joy to reread;

I am finding it a lovely cheery and bright place to be.

Also reading The Man Who Was Thursday by GK Chesterton

for an Advent Read along with

dear blog friend Mimi...

So far the book seems very much classic Chesterton 

and very well written.
