Lazy Weekend

I’ve had a lovely lazy weekend.

It’s mostly been spent reading a book I borrowed from a friend (if you found me, hello Ro!!),

Thanks, me too :)
That yarn looks delicious!!! I suppose it's a handspun from the looks of it?

Kind of! I'm using silk hankies which I've stretched out into roving, and I'm knitting straight from the roving without spinning. It's quite fun, but I definitely want to try spinning this stuff too!
The Ishbel looks gorgeous and SO squishy!! How is the book, any good?

It is good! Not exactly light or comfortable reading, but it's beautifully written.
Love the ishbel! Can't wait to see it unsquished. ;)

I read all of Doris Lessing's books that I could find when I was in college. She's such a good writer. BTW, I'll never be able to look at another Ishbel again without the name "Squishbel" running through my mind. : )

This is the first book of hers I've read. I just finished it this morning, and although I don't think I could describe it as an enjoyable read (the subject matter makes it a tad distressing) it is certainly very engrossing and well written. The friend who lent me The Grass is Singing wasn't too keen on Memoirs of a Survivor, but what I've read of it makes me want to read that next.

hehe, squishbel earworm!
