I am currently reading my last book for the book blanket: The Case of the Waylaid Wolf by Erle Stanley Gardner. I am really enjoying it and am equally wanting to know how it ends but do not want it to end. It has a little of everything, investigating, good courtroom action and trying to outsmart the other component in the legal battle. We know who is innocent, because it is a Perry Mason after all, but I always find these quite clever and hard to guess who the killer is. I am mostly enjoying the ride and not trying to figure it out but in some stories it is very obvious without even trying.

I have started to block my squares and any day now I will start attaching them, I think I have decided on which joining method I want to try. I wanted to make it so that there was no front or back of the blanket but I think I will have to cave and have a front.

We have been reading Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett in my work book circle and next week is our final time. I am reading it in Swedish (I lagens namn) and the translator has done a tremendous work with this one, it could not have been an easy book to work with. I have not read a lot of Pratchett before and I am a bit curious to read more. This one I have found quite demanding to read, there is a lot of details and information at the same time as the story is moving quite slow. The writing is very relaxing and comforting so if I read it in bed, I cannot read many pages before I fall asleep. I do like it though, it is funny and clever and even though we are like 40 pages from the end, I do not think that we have managed to predict how it is going to end (unless it actually is the very super obvious thing that we do not think will happen because it is too obvious, would not put it past Pratchett).

I am in a book mode where I want to read all and everything at the same time. When I have finished The Case of the Waylaid Wold, there is no blanket to take into account when choosing my next finish (I have not wanted to have a bunch of the same color right after each other because that would have made the blanked rather a bit boring). But I am not sure what I want to pick up first.

Handcraft project wise I am all over the place as well. The Tetris blanket takes a lot of time to do, a few squares at the time, so I do have other projects alongside and it is always such fun to start a new project. The most recent is a granny square made out of the scraps from the Tetris blanket. This square is something I want to turn into a phone case for my grandmother, she loves colourful things so I think this is going to be perfect!
