Work in Progress Wednesday 172

Hi everyone and happy early Thanksgiving to everyone in the US! If you live in the States, I bet you're frantically trying to make sure you have everything you need for the big day. That's my plan for the day! I'll be baking gluten free bread, making gluten free pumpkin pies from scratch and stuffing.

I don't have too much to share today, as I finished my second Hogwarts Express shawl of the month. I'll be sharing it on Friday once it's lightly blocked.



I did start a new project, but this is also a gift so I won't be sharing it too much on the blog. Sorry the picture is blurry but my phone only wanted to focus on the table.  I'm using Knit Pick Dishie for the first time, a 100% cotton yarn. I'm not too far along, but I really like it so far. I'm not the biggest fan of cotton, but this is not as hard on the hands (or so it seems) as some big box store cotton like Peaches and Cream. It feels a little silkier, in my opinion.

Not that this has anything to do with WIPW, but I just wanted to say, I LOVED Catching Fire! I actually saw it twice in 48 hours. My friend Alea and I ended up exchanging our Friday night tickets for Friday day tickets, which meant that my husband wouldn't get to see it. We knew we'd just be way too tired to go to the movie at 10pm. I'm so glad we changed our plans because not only was it good to be fully awake, but I got to see it twice. I went with my husband on Sunday and it was almost better the second time around if that's possible. If you haven't seen it, do so! I think it's just as good or better than the first Hunger Games movie. This is coming from someone who ADORES the books and owns them both in hardback and ebook.

Well, that's it for me today. I hope you have a great rest of the week, Thanksgiving (if you celebrate it) and I'll see you on Friday!

  2. Tami, I wanted to send you a Thanksgiving thank-you for hosting WIP Wednesday and FO Friday. I have so enjoyed meeting the various bloggers and seeing what they are creating. It's a good incentive to actually work on things and finish them, too.
