Since my mother passed away, my wee souls don't get hand knitted beanies or cardis anymore (I have no ability whatsoever!) so they hang on to the ones that they have from their grandmother, regardless of how small these items are! It's actually a beautiful reminder of someone they love. You are blessed with a super talent of being able to create things from a ball of wool to something that's more than just a woolly hat..<br />cannahandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13222490499410139379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-30234752412637025092014-04-13T17:55:09.055+10:002014-04-13T17:55:09.055+10:00Oh my!!

As I read this post I thought if I were looking to try the organic life your lovely words would have completely won me over. I feel so warm and cosseted reading them. I am sure it is real hard work, but you make it sound so cosy. Here in the Uk of course spring is showing its lovely face in the Miriam of wild flowers, but apart from the odd sunny day it is still chilly. I am busy sewing holiday clothes and crocheting a throw for the summerhouse. Keeping my fingers crossed for some warm weather you see.
