The Book of the Month: Sixty Years of Books in American Life | Al Silverman

Being that my box came late this month I‘m surprised it took all day to unbox it after getting it from my mail room earlier this afternoon….

Before I know it it‘s gonna be March and we‘re gonna be picking the next round!!

😆

But it‘s my birthday on Sunday so I‘m thinking it actually ended up arriving right on time!!

Let us hope life affords me enough time to not only buy & collect these books, but also read them sometime soon!!

💙📚🔖📦

Kitta Oh yay! That‘s great I‘ll save it to my ravelry. 4w

Kitta Is the magic loop method hard? I usually use dpns but I don‘t have the right size right now. 4w

MaleficentBookDragon @Kitta I cannot used DPNs. I am not coordinated enough. I used to do magic loop but I tended to get laddering. I found a great alternative. I use FlexiFlips. They are the best of both. I use them for all small circumference knitting. https://youtu.be/IgzMgqT-2Qs 4w

Kitta @MaleficentBookDragon oooh I‘ll check those out! 4w

MaleficentBookDragon @Kitta they are not cheap but I love them. I‘ve also used HiyaHiya Flyers. The metal ones are SHARP, if you like sharper tips. If you get them let me know if you like them. They were a game changer for me. 4w

CatLass007 A friend of mine uses circular needles for everything. No DPNs, no regular knitting needles, whatever those are called. Just the circular ones. Which I have a hard time remembering not to say the round ones. 1w

Kitta @MaleficentBookDragon I wonder if they come in bamboo too or would that be too flexible a material? I prefer bamboo needles generally and a blunter tip lol. My old dpns are wood but I stepped on two and broke them! 🤦🏻‍♀️ 1w

Kitta @MaleficentBookDragon I just checked and addi makes bamboo ones! Edit: So does Hiyahiya! (edited) 1w

MaleficentBookDragon @Kitta oh yes. I have both. Addi will be a bit blunter. It seems Hiya Hiya likes really sharp tips. I hope you like them.🤞 1w

Kitta @MaleficentBookDragon the only sharp tips I have are my Chiaogoos and they‘re metal, which I found I didn‘t like. So slippery for what I was doing. So maybe I‘ll like sharp tips if they‘re bamboo? I‘m not sure. I‘ll probably try the addi ones first. 1w

Kind of loving the blue and white covers theme coming in Septembers box!! 💙🤍
And there‘s an author whose first name is Chelsea, so that‘s pretty fitting to be getting as well!!

Used and Rare: Travels in the Book World | Nancy Goldstone, Lawrence Goldstone

5 stars!! This is my second time reading this…..books are kinda dated but it so accurately describes the slow descent into collecting that can happen. If you like books about books - you‘ll like this. Reminds me of 84,Charring Cross Road.

MaGoose I loved both the tagged book and 84 Charring Cross Road, too. 🤎 10mo
