Unbroken Yarn Along

Joining Ginny in her Yarn Along today.  Go visit for more inspirational yarns!

I picked up some of this Patons Lace on sale the other day.  I love this red; it was my favorite color for years.  The yarn has tiny sequins woven into for a little sparkle (which my 21 yo doesn't like for some reason.   I'll never understand and I'll never be fashionable.  It's time to accept that fact.), and I'm making a very simple scarf from Last-Minute Knitted Gifts. 

The book of the week, or month, is Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand of Seabiscuit fame.  Evidently.  I wouldn't know since I never read it or saw the movie, but this is another tale of fortitude and perseverance against all the odds, wherein a WWII pilot gets shot down and survives weeks in a life raft.  I'm excited about reading it and discussing it at Book Club in a couple of weeks.  If I like it, I might even read Seabiscuit!
