reading wrap up | january 2023

Jan 30, 2023 | Sonya Cheney

I really ended 2022 on a low note as far as reading went. I read maybe a handful of books between October and December because nothing could hold my attention, no matter how many books I tried. January, though—January is when I got my enthusiasm back. (Okay, well, tail end of December if you want…

Jan 23, 2023 | Sonya Cheney

recent reads | winter 2020.

Mar 21, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

I’ve decided that I’m going to do a seasonal wrap up of what I’ve been reading. I won’t review everything, and what I do review won’t be long or particularly “professional” sounding, but I do want to share because I love knowing what others are reading or have read. It’s a great way to find…

A moment please for this gorgeous LOTR yarn from @ A moment please for this gorgeous LOTR yarn from @longdogyarn. I really had to reign myself in for this collection, so it was so, so hard to choose just one color for a project, but the way I said, "Ohhhhhhhh!" and could feel myself light up after opening the package means I made the perfect choice.
