The scarf is done and I am hoping the recipient is happy to receive it on Christmas morning. I cast on a hat for Reece this weekend, it will be a little Winter Solstice gift for him. And while it does look like the same colour as the scarf, it is not. They are both knit with the same yarn, but the scarf is shades of grey and the hat shades of grey with green. I had plans to get a few bowls knit to be felted but time just seemed to get away from me this weekend. Hopefully I will have a few knit up to show you next week.
Doula reading is still ongoing and I also read through a great magazine, Pathways. I really love getting this one in the mail, so much great information in it.
What you knitting and reading this week?
Joining in with Ginny and Nicole.
Oh, I have no doubt the recipient will be happy to receive that scarf!! I haven't heard of Pathways before, but I checked it out via your link and I'm loving it! Thank you for the introduction. :)
