KKK, Neo Nazi, Tweedy Afghan is Finished, Bess Crawford Series

 

Tweedy is done, finally.  This was one of the more difficult ghans to put together.  The squares and rectangles were so different in size, and I had to take apart and remake 3 or 4 squares because they just wouldn't fit.  I thought I had enough of the tweedy (see tan ish edge) to size and join; but didn't.  I had 3 skeins and by the time I had worked on 7 of the 25 squares I was out of skein one and knew the remaining 2 wouldn't be enough, as I had smaller squares left which would take more yarn to properly size.  Soooooooo, I found more black and and added some of mint green to help size the squares, then joined in black.  I think it ended up far more colorful then before introducing other colors.

Here's a reminder before sizing and adding black and mint green.

In my previous post, I posted a picture of Neo-Nazi parading through a neighborhood 15 ish minutes from my home.  It was sickening.  This book read by the author in the audio version must be moved to the top of everyone's to read list.  This is not pretend or make believe; but very very real and beyond scary.  This is a warning of what The KKK, The 3 Percenters, The Proud Boys, and the Oath Keepers and their ilk want to turn our country into.  This has long been the plan, and they were able to escalate under the first trumpie dump administration.  To say he has given them a green light would be a HUGE understatement.  In this up coming scary 2nd administration the guard rails in place with some real Republicans are gone.  What is planned with only his MAGA cult loyalist around him is beyond disturbing.  PLEASE read this book and tell all you know about it.  Joe Moore infiltrated the KKK not once, but twice.  This whole book is first hand knowledge and experiences.

Book #4 in the Bess Crawford series.  She's a Nursing Sister In WWI.  She saves lives and solves mysteries.  The audio version is read by a lady with a marvelous British Accent, the books truly come alive.

Book #5, The War is technical over, but maybe not for many of the soldiers trying to adjust to the aftermath of the War.  Bess deals withtheir injuries; and the people wanting to kill them.

A Canadian friend sent me this, thought I'd share it.  Our allies are indeed concerned for us.

In light of the election and the dread many of us see coming, it's important to share beauty, thus the pretty roses Dear Hubby got me.  I LOVE the color.
