All gone now but I have their handiworks, tablecloths, doilies, dollclothes. I learned to knit from my honorary french mother when visiting in summer. Know I am making socks for my beloveds. Knitting seems so much more practical.Hilrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02985023518107864750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9159801499899289557.post-52585782925883462222011-02-07T21:27:08.952-06:002011-02-07T21:27:08.952-06:00Warm memories, thank you for sharing.

No patterns to read, they would look at something and be able to copy it or make their own design as they went along. I used to crochet too.

Ma Grand Mère and a few Bonnes Soeurs were more progressive toward Equality than most. I miss my Grand-Mère who at 375lbs (5'-1")would find time for us and would also hid her baked cookies in the Electric Dryer, which she received as a gift but NEVER used. Clothes was meant to dry outside.
