Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated Color by Kristin: How to Design Your Own Beautiful Knits in Books
Apr 27, 2018
There are 25+ patterns—very colorful patterns—and a variety of graphs in the back for creating your own variations. The patterns range from very beginner to advanced, but they all have similarities: using graphs, embroidery, and several colors to create beautiful knits. There are mittens, socks, hats, scarves, shawls and wraps, pillows, sweaters, ottomans… the list goes on and on.
In the back is a "designer sourcebook" full of ideas for color changing, stitch patterns, color mixing, edges and trim, and of course graphs galore. The graphs are sorted by how many stitches your project has to have: several graphs for multiples of 2 stitches all the way up to multiples of 30.
If you love color, love fair isle, or love creating your own unique knits, this is the ideal book for you.

Like most fitness trackers, the Leaf monitors your steps, and sleeping patterns. You can use the app to track your water intake, meditation, and also monthly cycle. The app uses the information you input and creates a "stress readout" depending on what you have going on in which areas. I love that I can easily track these things and look back on past weeks to determine any patterns.
Unlike other fitness trackers, there is no screen on the Leaf. I know this bothers some people, but I am not using the Leaf as a Smart Watch. I like that I can check it on my phone and I'm not constantly updating things on my wrist all day. I check it once or twice a day and for the most part, I forget about it. It is not distracting to me in any way.

A car speeds through the streets of Helsingborg. When it reaches the harbour, the driver keeps going, straight into the cold, dark sea.
A BODY IN THE WATER.
But it is not a suicide. The autopsy reveals that this man has been dead for some time. He was murdered two months ago, and his body has been deep frozen.
TURNS EVERTHING COLDER.
As more bodies are discovered, Fabian Risk must hunt a killer with a mission: to preserve his victims, and create the perfect death...
This is a very good action thriller that involves a puzzling story-line and creepy villains.
While it seems that there are 2 completely different, unlinked cases going on in this book, you get the impression that is not the case at all; but how they're linked is what keeps you guessing.
Very action-packed indeed and the more so the further you read. I greatly enjoyed it.
The writing and plot are superb.
If you love Jo Nesbo- this is for you.
Recommend reading!!
Thanks to Head of Zeus and Netgalley for this ARC.

This was the perfect start to an amazing series that blew the Charlaine Harris books completely out of the water! A must read for any vampire/supernatural fan but do be warned that the later books do get more graphic and sexual so probably not suitable for younger readers.
