Yarn Along: "Dark Places" and Cap Sleeve Lattice Top

Yarn Along is a wonderful weekly link-up hosted by The Small Things blog about two of the best things in life: books and knitting!

Hello, Yarn Along friends! As you read this, we're on a plane (probably miserable -- I hate flying) to Hawaii, where we'll be spending the next three years. You can read more about our move here!

Reading: I chose "Dark Places" as my airplane read since I fully expect it to be an enthralling page-turner like Gillian Flynn's other books. It's the only Flynn book I haven't read yet and I'm looking forward to another dark and twisted plot with a jaw-dropping reveal.

Knitting: I didn't have much time for knitting the past week with getting my brother moved to his new apartment in Denver, and Jarrod's and my two-day getaway to Walden, the moose viewing capital of Colorado (a couple pictures here), not to mention preparing for the move, but I did make a little progress on the back of my Cap Sleeve Lattice Top (pattern). I'm sure I'll have more to show next week, since we'll be in base lodging while we look for a house and I'll need something to do while Jarrod's at work!

    1. Thanks, Sarah! I really like how the top is coming along. And I'm knitting it in cotton, so hopefully I won't get heat stroke wearing it here in Hawaii!

  3. Hawaii for three years sounds lovely! Although, I don't know if I could make the plane ride from Maine :-) The book sounds awesome!

    1. Ugh, that is a LONG flight. When we lived here last time, I had to fly from Florida to Honolulu one time. My layover was in Atlanta, so the second leg of the flight was over 9 hours -- and it was absolutely miserable!

      I'm definitely enjoying "Dark Places," as much as you can "enjoy" a disturbing and dark Gillian Flynn plot! ;)
