September

September has been a BUSY month. I was in Milan, then I was at Spruce Meadows for 5 days and then at Chocolate School in Montreal for 3-ish days. So I apologize in advance for the lack of crafting. Reading I think will come out on top this month.
Chocolate school in Montreal was amazing. We made these:
Please do not drool on your keyboards, it is not good for them. 

Knitting I have on the go:
  1. Dragon Stole: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/dragon-stole
  2. Illuminated Lines Blanket: Thank you Knit Picks
  3. Circlet Cardigan: Thank you Knit Picks
  4. Fingerless Mittens: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fingerless-mittens-8
    1. I have 1 complete and about 25% of another one complete, a matching pair is within my grasp. These are beautiful, I want to do them on smaller needles with smaller yarn, it will take longer, but they will be less thick. Sadly these ones are in black which makes them hard to photograph nicely.
  5. Reverie Beret (I have done so many of these I could do them in my sleep, but I have made 1 or 2 minor adjustments to make it my own)
  6. Entrelac scarf, I do not think I am going to finish this per se... who knows
  7. Feather and Fan Blanket
  8. Mitered Square blanket in Parrot...I was crocheting this into something, but I did not like it, I still don't really like it but it will happen. 
  9. 10 Stitch Square Blanket
    1. I am using up yarn from the first Hue Shift Afghan, it should be a good time, I hope it works.
    2. I am onto the Navy Blue, 2.5 colours to go until completion.
  10. Revontuli
    1. This I made quite small to use as a sample, but I did knit it and get it finished this month so it does count.  I have not yet taken a picture of this one, soon. 
  11. Banana Bunches
  12. Mmario's wedding peacock
  13. Hue shift in 5 colours not 10
Crocheting:
  1. Corner to corner blanket in red, black, and white
Books:
  1. Soulless - re-read from last year, but it was so good the first time that I had to read it again, and so I did in a week while in Italy. 
  2. Outlander
  3. Longbourn
    1. All in all not a bad little book, but then again I have read worse. I have also read better. Somewhat tedious and I found that it took a while getting to the plot. 
  4. Heartless
  5. Pride and Prejudice
  6. Grey - yeah I read it, it was just as bad as all the rest, and as far as I am concerned she should never have entered into the relationship in the first place. But what do I know.
