BREATHING DREAMS

breathing dreams
like
air.

~ F. Scott Fitzgerald














 
I knit a blanket,
this blanket to be precise.
Jared Flood of course,
but then you probably
guessed that.
I used this yarn
in the color Kumlien's  gull
Oh so smooshy and soft.
Each stitch carefully knit
as I dream of the day my
newest grand will arrive
and lay his sweet little head
down on a blanket filled
with love.
XO

  9. Beautiful blanket! and what a great picture of your newest grand baby. he or she is smiling! I got one of those 3-D scans of Violet at 26 weeks and she looked just like she did when she was born at 40 weeks. Technology is amazing.
