Unraveled, September 16th, 2026

Joining with Kat and friends this week to talk about knitting and reading . . .

And I’m happy to report that the Feather & Fan socks for my friend Anne are finished. I didn’t quite make my self imposed deadline of Labor Day, finishing on Wednesday the 9th, but I’m happy that they are done.

No one loves Halloween like Anne and I hope these socks will give her an extra reason to enjoy the season.

I am currently reading Partita, the new Barbara Kingsolver book that will be published on October 6th and I am loving it.

I am listening to Woodrow on the Bench by Jenna Blum. It’s very good, and anticipate some tears will be coming, which you will understand if you have ever loved a dog.

What are you making and reading this week?

  1. Hooray for finished socks! I’d say two days past Labor Day is close enough, and I’m sure the recipient will love them. You’ll have to let us know about how much Woodrow makes you cry. You know I’m a dog lover, but I’m not sure if I can take a dog book that’s too sad now that I’m a dog owner.

  2. Very nice socks, and I’m sure Anne will be glad that they have been inspected by Fred/George. (Sorry, I can’t tell them apart!)

  3. Those are lovely socks, Carole! Woodrow on the Bench looks interesting! Thanks for putting that on my radar!

  4. Very cool socks, Carole! Lucky Anne! (And what’ve you got planned NEXT?) I can’t wait to read Partita . . . but I think I’ll leave Woodrow right there on the bench . . . 😉

  5. Carole, I am definitely a creature of habit, and I have been accustomed to getting your posts in an email. I will have to change my habits because I have been missing your posts! Did you remove that option? Love the socks, and I will be awaiting reviews of these books, depending on how sad Woodrow on the Bench is. I have lost a dog this year, and I don’t know if I want to read a book about it.

  6. Those are great socks! Very striking.

    I just finished reading The Sheep Detectives. Amusing, but not so compelling that I feel the need to move through the series.

    Just started The House of Boleyn by Tracy Borman, and I like it so far.

    Did you read Yesteryear? I have a lot of thoughts about it, and don’t know where to take them!
