Yarn Along - Kotes es olvasas

I have two passions that keep following me in life. One of them is reading, and the other one is knitting. I am sure this is not a revelation for you, if you read my blog from time to time. However, today I am going to combine the two with this icon, Yarn Along.
The idea behind this icon is to match up two things you enjoy. It could be a description of a knitting, and some musings over a book; or it can be a picture to illustrate your progress in knitting/crocheting and the book.
This is how I join in with Ginny on Wednesdays about knitting and reading.

Ket dolog van amit soha nem unok meg, az olvasas es a kotes. Gondolom, ez nem nagy hir, ha mar olvastatok a blogot, de most elhataroztam, hogy osszekotom oket a Yarn Along gombbal.
Itt az az otlet, hogy ossze hozzuk azt, ami orommel tolt el minket. Az lehet egy kotes/horgolas leirasa, es egy konyvrol valo monfondirozas. Es lehet egy foto is, amin a konyv es az alakulo kotes/horgolas van.
Igy csatlakozom Ginny szerdai olvasok es kotok oldalahoz.

I picked up my long abandoned sock project. For a while I was dreading to make another sock. Now I am enjoying it so much, that I don't understand what took me sooo long. As you can tell I am almost out of yarn. I have divided the ball of yarn equally, so hopefully I am fine. This pattern is from Yarn Harlot ( Stephanie Pearl-McPhee). I have changed two things on it, the height of the sock (shorter, going back to my yarn concern) and added some ribbing to have a small pattern and structure.
Coincidentally I am reading her new book, All wound up. I mean I was eying it, but it was never in the library. Yesterday I got lucky, and snatched it from the shelf fast. I was laughing all night.
The  other book is about gelatos. I love Ciao Bella gelatos, and when I saw it in the library I was elated. This week I am going to make some delicious gelatos from it.


Na vegre ujra elkezdtem a zokni kotest. Mert ugye egy darab zoknival mit tehet az ember? Amennyire nem erdekelt az elejen, most annyira elveztem, hogy ujra zoknit kotok. Eleg keves a fonalam, de remelem azert pont eleg lesz. Saccra feleztem a gombolyagot, igy remelem minden oke. Ez a minta, Yarn Harlot-tol, rendes neve Stephanie Pearl-McPhee. Ket dolgot valtoztattam rajta, az egyik a zokni magassaga, hogy kijojjek egy gombocbol, es a masodik az meg a bordas minta, hogy legyen egy kis tartasa.
Tegnap a konyvtarban ket szuper konyvvel tavoztam, az egyikuk pont a Stephanie Pearl-McPhee uj konyve, Felgombolyitva, ami persze egy szojatek angolul, azt is jelentheti hogy teljesen felhuzva. Kis esszek, es hat fantasztikus a humora. Meg a ferjemnek is tetszett, mert hat voltak reszek amiket hangosan nevetve olvastam ujra. Itt ir a blogjaba.
A masik konyv az a Ciao Bella gelato(k)nak a recept konyve. Emlekszem, amikor meg rendelni kellett, de ma mar ott van a rendes abcben is. Es persze nem hiaba, mert nagyon finom! Ez egy igazi amerikai siker tortenet :). Kis cegkent kezdtek es ma mar befutottak, de meg mindig nagyon igenyes. A heten tobb receptjet is kiprobalom!

    1. Thanks Lori ann! Some of her earlier books are available on audio, so you might want to start with that as you knit
