A friend of mine may soon be baby-making. She’s had the plans going for a bit, and I told her once it was official, I would knit her something for a toddler, knowing that babies just outgrow anything you make them.
Knitting is how we show our love. It’s something that takes time, thought, and money – and too often, we find it isn’t appreciated or wanted. I hope to be as lucky as the Soule Family, whose children realize that not all kids get handknitted sweaters. My husband already greatly enjoys the knitted blankets, handwarmers, and soon sweaters I make for him. How lucky I am to have my love taken care of so well.
