Bk5 of November & Bk3 of #NovelNovember #Readathon is done. The last few days have been a nightmare, worst flare I‘ve ever had has made me unable to even hold a book and I‘ve been trying to sleep through most of it. So I had to switch to an audiobook the past two days & finished the 8th book of the WOT instead. The Seanchan are in Ebou Dar, Rand has taken Illian & Elayne, Nynaeve & Aviendha are on their way to Caemlyn. #BookspinBingo👇

TheSpineView You tried. We can't like every book. 2y
TheAromaofBooks Always sad when the next book in a series you're enjoying doesn't really pan out 😕 2y

Bk9 of September & Bk18 of #LittensDressedInBlood is done! And I finished my first ever beanie while #audioknitting! It‘s not the prettiest but not bad for a 1st attempt. Least it fits. Mostly😋Now back at the blanket for my new grandson who‘s due in 3 weeks🙌Hubs is going away for a week leaving me alone so I‘ll be getting organised for October‘s ‘thons & finishing up some more reads for this month hopefully.🤞 #BookspinBingo #PennyPerPage👇

Lizpixie Just reread this & realised I didn‘t put a review in there! The 2nd in the #AllSouls trilogy, it started as my least favourite(not much for medieval fiction)but turned out to be my favourite. The author is an historian so the amount of rich detail is astonishing, Elizabethan England sounds so real, plus it has my two favourite characters, Phillipe & Gallowglass! 3y
TheAromaofBooks Yay!! And I'm so impressed with your hat!!! 3y
MidnightBookGirl I so love Gallowglass! 3y

Bk13 of August & Bk2 of #LittensDressedInBlood is done. Read on #audible this year, it‘s my annual reread of the series started. I love the Stephen Fry narrated books, he‘s got a wonderful reading voice. No need to review this really, if you love it you already know & if you don‘t, you don‘t care to. Started a new #audioknitting project, this ones a “fisherman‘s rib” scarf in shades of blue & ecru. 1st time I‘ve used a pattern successfully🥳👇

TheAromaofBooks Excellent work on following the knitting pattern!! I'm quite terrible at being able to follow crochet patterns despite technically knowing the stitches - I'm not sure why I can't quite get it, as following written instructions is actually usually something that I'm good at doing!! 3y
MidnightBookGirl I do enjoy Stephen Fry's narration, but Jim Dale narrates them great too (plus he narrates The Night Circus, which is my favorite book). I did a re-listen once where I switched between Fry and Dale every other book. :) 3y

Bk8 of August & Bk5 of #AwesomeAugust #readathon is done! Read as an audiobook on Scribd, I finished it today whilst sewing in the ends for my new scarf. I‘m very happy with it, but I‘m not sure if I should make tassels for the ends or leave them alone? The book was horrifying, tragic & very informative. Told from the POV of a few residents of the city, it describes a hellscape I‘m not sure I‘d want to live through.War is hell. #NonFictionBingo👇

Lauredhel Nice! I‘m not a tassel person, but you do you :) 3y
julesG Yeah! You could add pompoms. But I'd probably leave it as it is. #knittersofLitsy 3y

Andrew65 I think I‘d leave it as it is too. Stunning time. (edited) 3y
Librarybelle Love the scarf as is, but if you would like to add tassels, I‘d say go for it! 3y
TheAromaofBooks Love your scarf. I'm personally all about tassels 😂 3y
Lizpixie @Lauredhel @julesG @Andrew65 @Librarybelle @TheAromaofBooks thank you for the suggestions! I think I‘m leaving it as is, it‘s too chunky to add tassels to. My next scarf is a patterned one that will suit tassels more I think, then I might do a beanie with a pompom if I can master pattern work👍🧶🧣 3y
kaysworld1 I love that scarf 😍 3y
