Nostalgia ...

We have a new gadget at home that can convert slides into digital files. It's like a whole new world of discovery! This is my mum from the 60's - I think her outfit is wonderful! I think I'd quite like to re-create the knitted cardigan and skirt ... again as soon as time permits! I'm getting on well with my C&G sweater though - post coming soon!

    I'm looking forward to seeing how your sweater's coming on.
