Finished Scarf


This is Morning Surf Scarf by Jackie Erickson-Schweitzer. The pattern is in Spin-Off Summer, 2008. It was fun to make. The yarn is my own handspun merino and tencil.

Reading

I really did not read any outstanding books this month. Life of Pi started off really well but it got so violent and graphic that it was hard to read. I did not like the double ending. I think all that should have been left up to the reader, but I don't want to give any specific details that might ruin the book for someone else. The beginning of the book was quite interesting with the descriptions of life at the zoo and Pi's religious activities. And what follows is just life but as is true in life it is hard to take sometimes.
