Baa!


I thought I would share a couple of photos of Jack looking a little sheepish in his new hand-knitted jumper, given to us by my best friend. She didn't knit it - rather it was another vintage gem she picked up in a second hand clothing shop. Vintage hand-knit clothing always gets me thinking. Who knitted it, and for whom? One thing always stands out, and that's the care and attention that has gone into the creation of the piece, and although it wasn't originally made for Jack, it has found him, and we get to share a little piece of someones talent and affection.
