![]() ![]() The hat is described as having a little bit of rust at the crown and the "roll-up brim" as also being rush, the rest seafoam. My other problem with the book is that everything made, all the yarn and knitwear, is some combination of seafoam or turquoise and rust. ![]() I hadn't heard of sweeps before but it's a very cool concept. If you know nothing about yarn and how it's made or knitting, you'll learn a lot and as far as I know from my moderate experience it was accurate. Yes, that can happen when you're fifteen years apart but I think it's rare. I think for a relationship to be successful, you need to be in the same place in life. ![]() Yes, those relationships can work and be healthy, but I've seen so many that aren't healthy at all, where the people aren't equal, the older person is clearly in control, the younger person doesn't have time to enjoy being young or the older person acts younger than their age. I just hate the romanticizing of relationships with significant age differences in this genre. At least the younger guy wasn't still in his teens. The age difference isn't even acknowledged in the book. The story would have worked fine if he'd been even 30. The other guy is in his mid-twenties, which is completely unnecessary. The older guy is in his late thirties which is perfect. ![]() The one thing that did irritate me is that there is a significant age difference and there is absolutly no reason for it. There wasn't much of a plot, just the romance, but that was okay. I loved all the knitting stuff, and the wooing with knitted garments. ![]()
