I just discovered an error in Cuthbert...a book that somehow I didn't get on my list so it didn't get knit. And of course it's about 10+ books back that I need to undo! 🫣😩

I did some tinking (iykyk) I HATED the light pink and ended up switching it out for a varigated color. I also went through WAAAY too much effort for one book that was equally history and science. Usually I can decide which genre it fits better if it has multiple labels. Not here #booksky #booksnake
As a result of working on my booksnake, I am more aware of when I cluster books of my comfort genres. I was liking the more random patterning and I don't want too many big chunks so I had to force myself to make other choices. It's going to be an interesting result regardless

Knitted snake with colorful stripes. Each color indicates the genre of book that has been read
Check out Cuthbert! The speed of his growth is due to audiobooks, but I am able to engage with a wider variety of content this way. I bet that all my nonfiction will be audio! Not loving the color of the latest stripe but I was determined to use yarn from around the house. #booksky #booksnake

Cuthbert the booksnake is now 14 color stripes long. Also in the photo is the book Murder Your Employer, the McMasters Guide to Homicide by Rupert Holmes
Reading a mystery, listening to a mystery. I guess I know what color my next stripe will be. Well... not the very next as I have some catching up to do- but Cuthbert is looking fine.

My stats from The Storygraph, showing that I have read 8 books, 1,873 pages, I've listened for 31.03 hours and given an average reading of 3.84 stars. My 3 highest rated reads are Trust Me When I Lie, A Burning, and The Night We Lost Him. The covers of these three books are shown. A pie chart shows I have only read fiction, and the majority of my reads are audio and digital, followed by print.
My January reading wrap-up from @thestorygraph.com. This means I'm already 8 stripes behind on my #BookSnake 😂

An in progress knit stuffed snake, it's white with a red forked tongue and black eyes. It has purple, blue, and pink rings ok it's neck. The in-progress ring on the neck that is on the needles is a dark grey.
2025 #booksnake progress! They still need a name, though. I think I want to embroider on nostrils... #booksky #knitsky
Update on the #booksnake. Still need to add a face at some point 🥴 but I love seeing the progress! We are 26 days in and have read 251 books. We are on track to read 3,200 books by the end! #crochet 📚 💙 #booksky
Thing 1 and are doing book snakes this year. Here are the heads. Grey head for me, purple for Thing 1. I'll be knitting mine and she'll be crocheting her's. Names TBD.

Trying this #booksnake for 2025 - unfortunately I am bad at crocheting because I’m more of an “eyeball it” girl than a “count your stitches” girl ✨
My book snake with First segment filled out for Sci-Fi Fantasy
My first entry! Technically I'm not finished reading, I have 15 hours left for Sanderson's Wind and Truth. I mostly ready mostly Science Fiction and Fantasy, so my genre list takes that into account. And some books, are both!

I was having a conversation about temperature blankets and a crocheted Book snake to record book genres, and I decided to make a digital version of the idea.
Feel free to print and tweak this to suit your own!
