Yarn Along --April 29

~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading. I love seeing what other people are knitting and reading as well. So, what are you knitting or crocheting right now? What are you reading? Take a photo and share it either on your blog, on Instagram (#yarnalong), or on Flickr. Leave a link below to share your photo with the rest of us! ~ From Ginny

I made a super cute sunhat for Kimberly this week....she pick out the colors and I think she made a wonderful choice. Here is a link to this fun pattern.
 I'm also finishing up my knitting for the Preemie Project. I LOVE this new to me pattern for stay on booties.  The pattern is on the Preemie Project page. 
My books are all about school this week.  We are studying Asia and India in general. 
Our fun read aloud is Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing...great fun for all the kids.

Yarn Along

I wanted to just back on the bandwagon and join in this week's Yarn Along over at Ginny's Small Things blog.  I have to admit I don't read much (knitting and crocheting take up most free time), but I am between paying jobs right now so a woman can always dream.  
I have started, and found quite helpful, Father Jonathan Morris' book, The Way of Serenity-Finding Peace and Happiness in the Serenity Prayer.  I have been searching for a book that would be easy to read and comforting to the soul. This book is both! It needs to be easy to read because my concentration level right now is quite low. 
And this leads us to my other very easy, light, read: A Patchwork Murder--by Jan Fields. Cozy mysteries are just about my speed these days. 
Since I am between paying knitting jobs right now, I have dived head first into some charity knitting.  The charity I am knitting and crocheting for right now is The Preemie Project. There is a great need for these little items for the most precious little patients around the country.  The Preemie Project website offers patterns and sizing...which is very, very helpful.  
It's the middle of the "4th of July" hat and bootie drive.  We want these babies all decked out for the summer holidays.
