blown away












This is one of the warmest, comfiest outfits ever! The vest was hand knit by a very talented lady, following the design of a vest my great-grandmother knit a good.. 40 years ago. I actually asked my great g-ma to show me how to knit this myself, but her instructions were basically : " oh, this is soo easy, you just....$#^#&^#%#9&"...right. So I had to settle for someone else attempting to re-create it, and I was blown away by the result!

I was also nearly blown away when this random gusty wind came around and made me question my choice of this tunic.
