Happy Wednesday at the Yarn Along!!
{a bit of strangness here actually, a day i’ll never forget..but we won’t go into that}
More importantly , the knitting ! I am casting on my beloved MadelineTosh Vintage Thunderstorm for Veera’s newest cardigan , and I love love love it.
I am reading ! Actually reading a book reading ! It is called The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. It is far from a happy book, and I do hope it takes some type of magical ephiponal turn for the better soon.
Wishing you all a blessed Easter break. xx
Oh angelina 
It’s often hard to see the pattern in dark colors, but that one shows up nicely. Very lovely!

I used to read a lot of scary book… I think I’m too sensible for that and I’m more into a fantastical genre phase.
