Greetings Fellow Unravelers!
If your house is like mine this week… well, our making might be of the food-to-eat variety. I have a pie to make today and I have a tiny bit of prep work for the “feast” tomorrow. I hope your “making list” is manageable and that you will have time to knit tomorrow!
I did have one very fun finish this week… some weeks ago I got a little kit from Stitched Modern. It was so fun to put together to sit and stitch! I had such fun putting my own spin on each coaster. These will be a delightful fall staple on my table for years to come!
Since I completed the coasters I have been very monogamously knitting my second sleeve. I did have about 12 rows of unraveling to do… sigh. I skipped over the instruction that reminded me to change needle size after I knit the ribbing. So I ripped back and started the first chart again… a wise decision in a sweater that I am very much loving the process of knitting! I have made good progress since that bit of unraveling… I am over halfway through sleeve two and if I get all my things done today, I will have the evening free to knit a bit! My hope is that I will be starting THE BACK over the long weekend!
It has been a slow reading week. I bailed on Straight Man and started and finished a Netgalley book, Held by Anne Michaels. I was generous with my rating of 3-stars, but the writing was beautiful… sadly the story fell flat for me. And it seems my disjointed reading has not finished… I have started Daniel Mason’s North Woods… I am not far in, but I am not sure I will finish this one either. Good thing I have Michael Harriot’s Black AF History to keep me company… I am enjoying it so much!
That is all I have for today… I will be back on Friday! I hope you all have the best Thanksgiving… whether you have a full table, or it is just a few!

Your coasters are beautiful and the cables on your sleeve are wonderful! I hope you enjoy your Thanksgiving and get plenty of time to knit!
Those coasters are wonderful Kat! I am SO tempted to order…but have other things on my plate…Glad the sweater is progressing and hope you can get sleeve #2 finished and the back started. I’m sorry to hear your take on North Woods…I saw that somewhere and put it on my TBR list – it sounded so good. Happy Thanksgiving!!
I adore those coasters! I would be afraid to use them for fear of staining, but they are the perfect compliment to a fall table!
I hope your pie baking goes well and your Thanksgiving is delicious!
My gosh, that knitting looks gorgeous. And your coasters! Pure joy! Both in the making, I’m certain, and to look at. I love your playful placement of the leaves…and I am such a sucker for ‘anything acorns.’ Enjoy the prep day and togetherness and the feast…I’m thankful for you, Kat!
Those coasters are beautiful!!!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Those coasters are perfectly charming! I hope you have a wonderful and delicious Thanksgiving!
