yarn along: a finished bag and project dreaming



my family and i arrived at simona's last weekend, and we are all thoroughly enjoying our time together. of course, there has been knitting, too. just in time for our trip i finished the cabled shoulder bag, by and with Moeke Yarns. i am quite pleased with the way it turned out, especially as this is my first time knitting cables. i loved it and will be looking for more cable projects in the future!

next up, it's a cardi for me! i chose the Louise cardigan by Carrie Bostick Hoge, which i am knitting in Quince & Co.'s owl yarn. i am still waiting for a skein of peacock blue as a third color, and once it arrives i'm ready to cast on.

i have started Attachments by Rainbow Rowell, as i really loved her ya novels i thought i might like this one too. i am only a few pages into the book though so i can't say anything about it yet.

joining ginny's yarn along again today. what are you knitting and reading?
