Holiday!!!!

My holiday ritual, Creamy Coffee!

It feels like ages ago now, but, between training for a new position at work, moving to a new store and management training courses in Manchester... we went on HOLIDAY! yeayyyy. lol.

   We went to La Palma in the Canary Islands. I was going to bring some knitting with me, but boyfriend said that it would embarrass him...plus I couldn't find anything that was portable enough for a week in the sun.

So I had to compromise. Knit Lit was the solution. I came across "Divas Don't Knit" by Gil McNeil. I hadn't ever read a book about knitting that wasn't a book a of patterns, and I was pleasantly surprised by this book. Based on the title I thought it was going to be about some brat that would come to find knitting and struggle with it until the end when something miraculous would happen...etc etc. But it turns out that the protagonist isn't a "diva" at all...quite that opposite actually. Anyway, I don't want to give it all away. I would give this book 3.5/5, it is a little bit unbelievable at times but good enough to inspire some projects and I was left wanting to read the sequel ("Needles and Pearls"... which I can't find anywhere!...going to have to amazon-it.).
