Joining in with the Yarn Along from Ginny's lovely blog, Small Things. The idea is you post what you are currently knitting and reading in one go. Knitting and reading - so good for me, soul medicine like (if only one could do both lovely things simultaneously...).
An American friend introduced me to this series of books many years ago and I am reading the latest. What can I say, not high brow reading but seductive, interesting, lovable and I always whizz through them super addict style. Thick slabs of books, they fill you up.
On the needles is a hat for myself (the purple was appropriated by the Beauty). It's supposed to be this hat, but it doesn't look like that hat at all. Last time I knit this it also seemed to turn it's self into something wholly different. Who knows where I am going 'wrong', my ability to read patterns (even simple ones it seems) sometimes is lacking. Nevertheless I am sure there will be a hat (of a sort) eventually.....

I too love the Gabaldan series!
The hat pattern looks really nice, and I love that rustic looking yarn, just the kind of thing I would choose for myself.
Is that the last one in the Outlander series? I'm on the "Fiery cross" right now and I have to say I adore the series.
I have only read the first one - years ago. I really enjoyed it- loved it even, but just didn't feel I wanted to go on. Don't know why, really.

That yarn is very pretty...just the sort of colors I like to wear myself.
The yarn is lovely and can't wait to see how it turns out :)
