Just wanted to say I will miss you grandma! Sorry I didn't visit you more often. Wish things were different between us. Yet I understand you loved in your own way.
This Summer I had a visit from my granddaughter. She is so much fun to have around, so full of life and so very mischievous. She is a little like her mother but does not have a single shy bone in her body, even though she loves to say she is. I've been missing her dearly since she has returned home. Forgetting how much energy it takes to entertain a six-year-old. I must admit that after she left, I was quite exhausted. In this picture we both had our hair done, and I was so ready to take a nap. Even so, I had a great time and truly miss my little ladybug. I've not knit as much as I would have liked, currently, just trying to complete some projects I've started some time ago.

Here she is finished and ready to dry. I will be participating in this year’s West Knits, MKAL. This is the yarn I will be using. Looking forward to starting this mystery project.

She would crochet using cotton thread, with these really tiny needles. Once she was completed she would starch the crochet swan in liquid starch. Her dollies were precious with the little flowers in the center. She was the one, who taught me how to crochet. I just wanted her to know, that I miss her and I wish her the best Birthday ever. Éste es una foto de mi Abuela, Su cumpleaños fue en Septiembre. ¡No es ella una muñeca! Ella es también un tátara abuela. Mi abuela le gustaba el crochet, hacia algunos cisnes impresionantes. Ella crochet con un hilo de rosca del algodón, con estas agujas realmente minúsculas. Una vez que la terminaran ella almidón el cisne del crochet en almidón líquido. Sus carros eran preciosos con las pequeñas flores en el centro. De ella fue de quien yo aprendí a ser crochet. Me ...
