PAD June is 'Grateful Month' 26.6.2022 - How wonderful was my Great Aunt Carol who taught me to knit when I was just 5 years old.
The first thing I knitted with Carol's guidance was a jumper for my Teddy, I had it for many years but when I was in my teens, moths got to it and Rosie threw it out 😞 I have been knitting ever since and have many photos of jumpers I've knitted for family and friends over those years but the jumpers I will show you today are an Aran pattern I bought in 1967, with Tony Bonner as the model, the first one I knitted was for David when he headed overseas in late 1967... I also knitted his pattern for my self and several other family members, 9 times I've knitted this pattern! Wow! I wonder how many more times I will knit it??
This 9th is a Vest I knitted for myself... I must take a photo...
Tony Bonner.
Great Aunt Carol, not only known for her Fudge Recipe but for teaching me to knit as well.
