Current knitting: a simple garter stitch scarf, using fuzzy yarn from Dollar Tree. I'm working in random colors, with two strands together. The goal is warmth and softness rather than beauty.
Current reading: "Area X" by Jeff Vandermeer. This is the omnibus edition of the Southern Reach trilogy. I finished the first book, and honestly, I'm not sure I'd keep going if the second book wasn't in the same volume. It's not bad, but it's a very different writing style than I usually read.
