(photo by my sis)
This yarn started off as a Childremass batt, themed on (surprise) the cover of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell.
{I am going to read this book again mostly propelled by my need to figure something more out about that guy...}
I still think it fits in the colors I see in JS&MrN, but as I was spinning it, it became Mirkwood. I was looking up a quote to add to the Etsy listing (here, with more photos!) and came across the perfect one:
There was a greenish light about them, and in places they could see some distance to either side of the path. Yet the light only showed them endless lines of straight grey trunks like the pillars of some huge twilight hall.
...you know. I think The Hobbit is probably my favorite fantasy book. Ever.
Most days I wouldn't admit it.
But while Lord of the Rings is amazing, The Hobbit is like home to me. It has the humor, the intruding mundane, the dragon.
I want to read it again.
