fun stuff 06/09/15

my teal scrap blanket...
photographed on my knitting adirondack chair.
this blanket is knitting up really quickly (compared to the fuchsia blanket)
i think it is because i'm really comfortable in this side of the colour spectrum,
so combining colours of blues and greens are a breeze.
i'm reading an illustrated abridged version of herman melville's moby dick.
i found this version by jan needle in one of the little free libraries in our neighbourhood.

i remember attempting to read melville at university...
i think i made it to the chapter where queequeg and ismael become roommates 
(not very far at all...hehehe)

i wanted to read the story before seeing the movie,
have you seen it yet????
what are you knitting? reading?
care to share?
