My knitting and reading this week have been kind of slow.  However, I did have a chance to start a hat for a Christmas gift, no project page yet but the pattern is here .  I'd like to start some fingerless mitts for gifts as well this week. That is my knitting plan and I'm sticking to it. I continue to enjoy All the Light We Cannot See.   The plot is slowly building up, more characters are being introduced and I'm waiting for all the characters to be woven together.  How exciting!
