Description

I made this new sweater for myself as well as the one with pink in it for Sophie. Neither of them cost anything as they are made from odd balls that I was given. My Grandmother said that as we age we start to look like either like toads or lizards. HOW TRUE! Luckily I have no delusions about my looks: health and contentment are what matters. My little bedfellow Fritz would agree. See it unoccupied Here

What a lovely capture, wonderful work you do with those sweaters, they look great and I bet they keep you warm too. Fritz lovely coat comes through in this shot. I love the lampshade captured in the reflection of the mirror. I should really paint my walls white, it would open up the rooms more and show the art to better effect.. at the moment they are all neutral magnolia with darker carpets. Nice shot.

Well done! I wish I was aging half as graciously as the fine examples you set for us all... Yor contentments, and your examples of appreciation for all things is much to be admired. Through your eyes, you give us all a measure of what we all have to be thankful for. Your postings have become treasures over the years that we can all treasure... most of all the pleasure of you sharing your life with us all! - Happy Holidays!

I can't begin to imagine how to knit a sweater! You did a marvelous job on both of these two, will you knit some for the boys next? Great self-portrait, Andrea, I think you look great!

Your excellently knitted sweater goes well with your red jeans, Andrea, and Fritz appears most content. And I try not to think of getting old, but the calendar, the mirror, and my aches, pains and quasi dementia bring me back to stark reality.

A lovely sweater Andrea and for a moment I thought that you were wearing Sophie's new sweater. A lot of wonderful well deserved comments and I think that Tim (Technistrations) said it best!

"Age is just a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." ~ Mae West There is a company named Novica that brokers handicrafts from all over the world. You should see what they are charging for a sweater like this. Really fine work.

You are a very talented lady and this photo shows it! I also like looking at things on your walls. Perhaps you could one day do a collage of indoor places in your home.

Yes, dear, contentment is so very important. That one always feels happy about, being the one you are, huh? That's what I always told to our children. But you look lovely fto me, and I really don't like faces that have been "ironed out" by a surgeon. LOL! I love your sweater, although I liked the colors for Sophie more. Top, you got all this beautiful material to make such beautiful jumpers , Andrea.
