I was working on family history this evening and read again…
……..”Mary did all the sewing and knitting for the family and in those days most all the clothing had to be homemade.”
Mary was my grandma’s grandmother “Grandma Miles”. My grandma’s photo of her grandmother Miles use to hang over her bed. It has been in my home for some 25 years now….it was willed to me because I asked for it when I was 16. I love this photo and of course feel a kindred spirit for Grandma Miles….a fellow knitter.
