The funny thing is that young people don't seem to get as cold as older ones.

Being a knitter I have some idea of the ammount of time and energy that goes into making woollen clothes too! I remember the heart break when my girls got undarnable holes in the socks I'd spent a summer and autumn knitting them!<br />My mother still talks about the itching knitted swim suit her mother made her! She said she nearly sunk it was so heavy in the water :)<br /><br />Wishing you and yours a beautiful New Year Lisa!!!suzyhttp://scrapsofstarlight.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-94747407415633325.post-43484054465464120292012-01-07T04:24:54.858-06:002012-01-07T04:24:54.858-06:00Great picture Lisa.

We’re very lucky to livein a modern world with washing machines and driers - but why do we pine nostalgically for the good old days?Little Nellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862657943846727987noreply@blogger.com
