and now i have started a blog!
Jess: I am very impressed! I knew you were creative, but think you are so comfortable just talking about your inventions. My grandmother taught me to knit and crochet many, many, MANY years ago, but arthritic hands have prevented me from doing much in that line these days. (Great to see pix of Azor).
Love, Grandma
I was wondering if you have ever sold your crocheted wool diaper covers?
My son is 6 months old and I am trying to take the leap into cloth.
I am unable to knit or crochet! Thanks!
