I love this story, my grandfather, to include men, back in the 60’s when he would have been in his late 80’s taught me the basics of knitting. It wasn’t until nearly 30 years later I picked up knitting needles after a failed attempt at a cardigan and knit a tiny jumper & bootees for my first daughter. Having taken crochet up in the 70’s and again during lockdown with my daughter. It has also helped me, but you have inspired me to want to pick up knitting needles again and try again. Both beautiful crafts. Thank you for your inspiration and story.
