Linking up with Ginny for Yarn Along.
Reading - I'm still reading my Simple Living Guide. It's perfect for me right now as I don't have a lot of time to sit down for long to read. I like how I can just grab it real quick and read a story or two.
Knitting - I'm still knitting my hand spun socks.
This is sock number 2. I am sure I will have enough yarn - the real question is if I will have enough to knit the heels out of the hand spun or have to match another yarn in there somehow. I'm not too worried - I will make it work.
I am happy that they are kinda matching, which is rare with hand spun.
From looking at the remaining ball I think the matching should continue. Tonight is Spinning Night so I am hopeful that these will be complete by tomorrow.
What are you reading and knitting?

They are so pretty. I love the bag for traveling too!
Handspun socks. I am impressed!
I love the colorway of your socks! Very pretty.
Your hand spun yarn is lovely and I am equally impressed they are matching. I always try my best to match up commercial sock yarn.
Oh, such cozy socks! Truly a work of love!
Pretty pretty pretty!!
I love how the first sock came out! They're going to be gorgeous :)
Homespun socks! Such a grand accomplishment. I tried spinning once when I was a kid, and it seemed impossible!
Those socks look so lovely, the colours are beautiful!
Thanks for sharing, I am adding "Simple Living" to my must read list as we have just moved from San Francisco to a small farm in the delta with the hope/goal of simplifying and somehow making it all work.
