More books for the yarn along this week :)) Last Wednesday after I posted we went to the library and one of my favorite things now is too look in the "free" box. You never know what treasures can be found. Welll I found all these.
A mish mash of books for me and the kids and for homeschooling. The blue book is my favorite to look at.
I know my pictures aren't great but the illustrations intrigued me. But that's not what I'm reading. I started this book in between everything going on. So far good.
Lastly "The Hundred Year Throw" is this crochetted grey soft throw that has made an appearance in previous yarn alongs. I'm having trouble finishing and now I'm going to unravel half of this. Why? Because it's boring. Ever have those type of projects that feel like they go on forever and you never want to finish (like this one)?
My solution for this is "The Afghan Making Rule". It's a rule I made up for myself when I need to make really big afghans or throws to break it up into pieces so I can try different stitches and designs then seam it at the end and I won't get bored doing the same thing. Done.

Wow--that's some free box!
I like your rule! I'll have to remember it...
I love all of your book sharing!
I certainly can relate to the feeling of a never-ending and boring knitting project so I really like your afghan rule. I'm trying to be much braver with my knitting this year.
