Yarn Along

Joining Small Things for the yarn along today!
 
The hats and mittens are coming along great for my little buds. I'm working on mitten #2 for one little girl who loves bumble bees. I found some black sparkly yarn and yellow yarn in my stash so that was an easy choice! I took time out yesterday to make one of these cuffs  to go in our Operation Christmas Child shoebox. I just need Maddie to pick the buttons she wants on it!  
 
Maddie and I just finished reading Here There Be Dragons. Its aimed at older children so I had to do a little editing in some of the battle scenes. Even so we loved the story. A whole land where characters in books are alive! If your child loves CS Lewis or JRR Tolkein and the Classics I would highly recommend it. On my own I am reading A Magnificent Obsession about Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Its very interesting and I'm doing my best to speed through it! Its only a 2 week book from the library. I'm not sure I'll make it.
 
Happy Thanksgiving a bit early! Hope your Christmas knitting is coming along!!
