yarn along: mabel again


knitting :: Mabel Cardigan

Detroit Hustle was an interesting read, and not what I expected. It truly is a memoir -- one woman's journey from a trailer in Colorado to hipsterdom in Brooklyn to fixing up a ramshackle house in Detroit's West Village, not too far from where we live. It's about her, not the house, really, and she and her husband aren't into DIY, so it's not a how-to guide. But it's thoughtful, personal, and (for me) local.

What a cute little sweater! I love the green and grey together.

It's so fun to read books set in places you've lived or visited! I've always got my eye out for books that take place in my home state of Colorado.
