She be done! It took me the better part of a year of on/off knitting, but I finally cast off on that Ducks blanket on Friday. *dances*
So glad it’s done. I think I’m through knitting circular blankets for a while ;-). I’ve already cast on another project which I can’t share with you yet. Yes, it’s a gift. Patience my young Padewans 😉
Oh! So speaking of finishing. I finished with Heartless – the fourth book in the Parasol Protectorate series – other day. Seriously, if you haven’t started reading the series yet, fix it. I never in my life thought I’d say this about steampunk (what can I say, it’s generally not my jam), but it is awesome. I adore Alexia and Conall and Lord Akeldama and all the others. The only character I despise is Felicity. You’ll get why once you start reading, I’m sure.
While we’re on the subject of characters. Who is your favorite character and who is a character you absolutely despise?
The blanket looks awesome!
I don’t think I could name one favourite character. There’s too many. Without thinking about it too much (because otherwise this would become a very long list) I’d say Gen from the thief. And Eli monpress from… the Eli monpress books, who is also a thief so maybe there’s a pattern there lol.

Thank you!
Hmm, interesting. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of either of those books. Thieving aside, what are they about?

Oh jeez. I’m the worst person you’ll ever meet at explaining things! They’re fantasy books but they’re not heavy. Quite funny. And really thieving is pretty important to both lol

Hopefully these work. Linking things on mobile is unnecessarily hard!
