Meet The Bookish Hook Series

I have completely settled into a quiet, peaceful era within my life and I am here for all.of.it!!! I'm a HUGE advocate for tuning out the world for a bit and ignoring the dreary news. Over the last couple of months, I have been looking for a way to create a community of people. People who stay up until 2am to finish a book and then stay up for another hour just to process it. People who will walk into a yarn shop just to touch the pretty skeins and buy another set of knitting needles they don't need, but need. 

If this speaks to you, then I'm excited to introduce....The Bookish Hook Series! 

What is The Bookish Hook? - Well, it's a bi-weekly YouTube series where I’ll be crocheting a blanket, with each square inspired by the colours of my favourite book covers. Each episode will feature a new book-inspired square, where I be crocheting and chatting about the who's and what's of each book. I'm really curious to see what this blanket will look like in the end.

Why This Series? - I want to create a community where we can talk about the books that changed our lives; to look for advice or find tips and tricks on how to bind a quilt; to get help on how to decipher a knitting pattern, and to get excited about the release of the new Fourth Wing book that just came out. My husband has no idea who Xaden is and why I want to melt into the books to lay eyes on him so I can't exactly talk about it with him right?

Join the Community - To start, this series will exist primarily on YouTube but I am thinking of launching a private Facebook group to keep the conversation going. We may even start a book club if there is interest. We'll see where this path leads us!
