The Phildar pullover is coming along slowly but surely. I enjoy the 4/2 ribbing. It has a certain soothing rhythm to it. I added The Big Book of Knitting to my library yesterday. It is full of awesome tips and finishing details, which I'll be needing more as I take on more complex projects.
Also, I'm joining a book club with a handful of other women. A friend from work invited me, which is so cool. I'm excited to be doing this. We're starting with House of Sand and Fog. Back in April I worked a bit on the movie adaptation, which will be out next month. The book club is going to take a field trip to see the flick together!
The holidays are around the corner, I suppose. No huge list of knitted gifts for me. I just want to knit for myself (and a few others on occasion). Mandatory knitting just seems like a lesson in frustration. But I should probably start thinking about gift ideas for a few loved ones.
Went to Venice last night with Paul and enjoyed a slice of pizza and hazelnut gelato. Life is good.
