Outlander, Starts and Finishes and......

 

Thank you Darling Daughter!  Look at these colors!  This was a gift from Darling Daughtger because she knows how I love the show Outlander.  This collection of yarn is The Outlander Club.  218 yards each of Pure DK 100% Superwash Merino from  Honey Girl Farms.  I started with Jamie Fraser which is the bottom of this first picture, then striped it with the gold which is Fall at the Ridge, then the gold by itself, then striped the gold with Claire's Surgery (the grayish blend), then a section of Claires Surgery on it's own which is what you see at the top of the picture.
Took two pictures because of the sun sorta made it hard to see the one color.  This will be another asymetrical scarf/shawl...depending on how large it ends up, though this has a slightly more curved shape than the previous scarf I made.  The pattern will continue with solid sections followed by the blending of two of the colors in striped sections.


Yes, I finally got this one finished!  Just need to tuck in two ends and soak and block it.  I Love the colors of this one as well.  You can see how much less curved this one is than the Outlander.


It's been pretty cold lately with many nights and some days below freezing and no leaves left on the trees, as you can see.  Took this on my street one evening.  Beautiful red sky.

While yes this is another WWII book, it is quite different than the others I've posted about.  This is a true story about Brotherhood between enemies.  The story of Charlie Brown and Luftwaffe Fighter Flying Ace, Franz  Stigler in 1943 in the skies over Germany.  I really enjoyed this book and heart warming story and highly recommend it.

Got a kick out of this, and it seems to sorta represent my exercise during the month of November.  I do like a good Martini, but didn't do any yoga during the month.  My planks were about the same 7 in Oct and down to 6 in November.  I did better with walks, up by 2.  Took 11 walks in October and 13 in November for a total of 97.22 miles, about 3.35 miles average per day.  I was one day short in the month as my fitbit wasn't synching and was plugged in rather than on my arm to force a synch.

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving, and for those that traveled...safe travels.
