Fabric Wool

If I were a fabric
I would of course be wool.
It is such a versatile tool.
Always warm to the touch.
So easy to work with.
All the colours of the rainbow.

Thanks for the note below. I only saw it because I came back here to congratulate you on your win. That was funny about your hubbie's name for a boy!

I know. His father's nickname was Phonsy. That doesn't work for me either!

Regarding your comment to me below, I commiserate with you. I have three daughters and one son and all but one are living over twenty three thousand miles away from us on the mainland. I really miss them. Congratulations on your bow to wool, there is nothing like it for warmth. ; )

Triple header: nice photos, nice knitting, nice poem. The smart-alec in me wanted to say I was just "itching" to read it (when I saw the title;-) Did you really knit those sweaters? Wow! Love the colors ~ j

Jean Murray

Yes I did John. Every autumn I myself itch to get started again when I see the wonderful colours all around me.

this is wonderful, Jean. A GREAT fabric to be, warm and cuddly too. This is you with your son? I love the pics too.

Jean Murray

Thank you Andrea. Both pictures are of my eldest daughter Edna, pouting a little in the younger photo. We have three daughters only, whom I got to name after my mother, sister and aunt. Thankfully no sons, as my husband insisted he would be called after his father.....Alphonsus.

I wonder does he wear it? I will add a few if pictures are allowed. I was in a rush as I was the last entry for this contest. That's my feeble excuse for my misspelling....this time. Thank you for pointing out my mishap Jan.
