I’m channeling my mother

I can’t tell you how many old family photographs I have with a shadow of my mother taking the photo. We met Lori for breakfast yesterday and afterwards she showed us her latest hand knit, chunky knit throw (small blanket) she made, in 4 1/2 hours. These throws are all the rage, this is her second one; she goes to a knitting shop where they have long high tables set up. She walks and knits and turns and walks and knits. 😊

4-1/2 hours?? It would take me that many years! That's a neat talent she's displaying - and I do love your shadow taking the picture.

[Ingrid]

Ha! Your shadow makes me smile. Great throw! Sounds like an exercise class making them.

[Lou Ann]

@ingrid01 she said it was quite a workout. Her legs were tired! @milaniet I asked her if she could make it at home, she said she could, but she liked making it at the store so they could help her when she had a question.

The throw is awesome. Beautiful design and some thing to be proud of. I love the photo with your shadow in it as well! An inadvertent selfie!
