My cowl is coming along nicely, though I haven’t had a lot of time to work on it lately. Mostly I’ve been reading and writing – and enjoying both tasks even more than I usually do. I’m not reading South of Broad yet, but I’m excited to get started with it as soon as I finish my current book. I’m so excited that one would think I was unaware that this book is not one of Pat Conroy’s best – but I do know that, and I’m excited anyway. I keep trying to remind myself of the ridiculous parts: the ex-nun/Joyce-scholar/school-principal nun mother is totally implausible. There’s a married couple (or maybe just a boyfriend-girlfriend couple – I forget) named Fraser and Niles, like the brothers in the Kelsey Grammer sitcom. There’s way too much attention paid to high school football.
But I don’t care. Don’t care, don’t care, don’t care. My hands are pressed against my ears. I’m just excited to be back in Pat Conroy’s world.

That yarn color is so pretty! It will make a lovely fall cowl! I have been wanting to knit a new cowl for myself…my list of projects is getting a little longer than the time I have available though 🙂
Thank you – I love the color too! I hardly ever wear orange but am looking forward to making an exception!
That cowl looks lovely. It looks light and warm at the same time. I love the fall color.
Thank you! I love the color too, and the wool is extremely lightweight and warm.
what a gorgeous color for a cowl!!
Thank you – I love the color too!
What a pretty cowl. What perfect for yarn for the upcoming Fall season!
Thank you! It comes along with a promise to myself to actually go somewhere this year that has real fall and winter weather. I’m living in a climate that doesn’t get much seasonal weather change, and I miss the dramatic colors and weather in the fall. A mini vacation is in order!
This looks like a fun pattern- beautiful fall color.
Thank you! I’m really enjoying working on it.
