Knitting and Reading

Happy Wednesday, time for another yarn along with Ginny.

I am still reading my big book about a French family, I have just reached the 50s, I like it very much. And I am making progress on my new Wool Peddler's Shawl. I have decided it will become a birthday gift for a friend. I am using Simply Soft in Fall Red.


The birdie in yesterday's picture is a goldfinch on a sunflower. It is in the middle of the picture, to the left of the purple flower. They blend in so well.

That red is one of my favorite colors. It's going to be a beautiful shawl!
