I have begun my second textured blanket,
the blanket that I think will be a checkered blanket,
with big 'checkers' as it were.
I am really enjoying it so far;
I am doing it on a bigger needle size (10)
and it is making for a soft draping blanket....
I still have to find a size 10 circular needle though!
We will see if I have luck finding on in NYC today!

I've been reading A Tree Grows in Brooklyn...
I thought I had not read it before but I have a feeling I did
read it now, maybe the year I was in library school
in London Ontario (so about 10 years ago).
I got some cute shimmery cotton yarn on sale
that I hope will become a pretty
scarf, based on this pattern
(thanks TJ!)
I am thinking of doing it in this colour lineup,
cream, the pale blue, the sea green and the light shimmery brown...

I am also scanning the Tartine Cookbook I got for Christmas.
I have some serious desserts to contemplate...

I am posting this a day early as I fear it will not get done otherwise!
With NYC today, it will be busy and I am guessing tomorrow will be
a rest day for me!

What are you reading and making?
Yarn Along with us!
