Yes, I mentioned that third book in the other comments. I'm pretty sure it's another sequel. I don't want to read more about it because it already spoiled something for me just by reading the description of the book.

A large cozy shawl!
And the third book in the series is being published next week! The Mountains We Call Home. But don't search for it now because the description I just read has a spoiler that I wish I didn't know yet.
Really enjoying The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek. It's a very engaging story, and I'm learning about the blue-skinned people of Kentucky. This is why I love historical fiction -- I can be immersed in another reality AND learn something new. #books #reading #packhorselibrary #booksky πβ³π
Wow, so flattering too! I can see why it's your favorite winter cardi. Just added to my queue.
Yes, this color is so rich and happy. π
Came here trying to figure out what was up with that! I should know better than to click on those trends anyway. π€·ββοΈ
It looks like we're at roughly the same amount of progress too!
Oh, that's in the alt text but forgot to put it in main post. I'm using Acadia by The Fiber Co. Unfortunately they've recently announced they're discontinuing all yarn sales. I bought as much as I could justify on sale though!
View of the garden cardigan from the front as I'm working down towards the bottom hem. Yarn is a gorgeous mossy green in Acadia by The Fiber Co.

I missed #knitsky yesterday but glad everything is seemingly back to normal now. Update on my Garden Cardigan after I've joined the fronts and the back. Now working to bottom hem before making the sleeves. I love the interesting neckline construction on this design by Ankestrick! π§Ά #yarn #knitting
A mass of purple violets growing in my lawn.
Close-up of a violet with white and purple petals. Blurred in the background is a yellow dandelion and green grass.
I encourage violets to grow wherever they want in my native garden. Right now there are many clumps of them scattered through the lawn, forming a beautiful contrast with the yellow dandelions and green grass. #wildflowers #bloomscrolling #flowers #Ohio

Nice colors!
My feed has been full of those in the last couple of days too and I find it extremely upsetting.
My neighbor's border collie goes nuts every time she sees me and it melts my β₯οΈ to be loved that much by a dog!

Early voted in Ohio's primary today! πͺπΊπΈ You can vote all this month or on primary day, May 5th. Whichever way you do it, MAKE SURE you do it!! #vote #Ohio #election
Mossy Way, in a mossy green, of course!
Spring ephemerals seem to take forever to bloom here in northern Ohio, but my garden is finally seeing some action! Here are Virginia bluebells, bloodroot, and Dutchman's breeches from today. #wildflowers #nature #nativeplants #nativegarden πΈπ»π
Hmm, maybe not a bee. This looks more like one of the hummingbird clearwing moths. That flight pattern is very distinctive, and that's why they're named hummingbird moths because they hover like hummingbirds. Not sure where you're located, but could be Hemaris thysbe.
Thank you. π€
I'm eating the entire pan of lasagna tonight. π
I really don't think he's going to follow through with his insane threat for 8:00 tonight, but I'll still be holding my breath in case he does. I'm so sorry some people in my country have inflicted this madman on the entire world. #LockHimUp like Hannibal Lecter and lose the key.
This is how DT needs to be handled. NOW. No access to a phone or any media. Lose the key. π±π±π±π±π±
It's always so satisfying to watch those seams come together!
I'm frustrated by this too, but when you realize how expensive it is for us to drive there at $4 a gallon for gas, plus pay for hotel, you start to understand why this hasn't happened yet. That doesn't excuse people who live close enough though. We need everyone in the greater DC area to be there!
I'll buy his ticket.
Stunning image!!
I zoomed in for a closer look and started craving Cheetos. π
Thank you!
