One of my favorite people turns 21 today! She is the daughter of my friend, a friend of my son, and lucky for me, a friend of mine.
I don’t remember how old she was when I met her but I’ll go with 8 or 9. She has a wonderful sister too and I think our official meeting date was New Years Eve. These girls were adorable and they were all dressed up as I recall. Little did I know how important they would become to me and how enjoyable it has been to watch them grow to amazing young adults.
As her birthday approached I knew I needed to do something special for her. And she knits! The most recent installment of the Woolen Rabbit yarn club was a skein of Mara. If you don’t know this yarn, go find yourself some! I knit my Hawthorne with it and this Greyhaven cowl. It’s a light worsted weight blend of merino, alpaca and silk. Scrumptious I tell you.
So Happy Birthday KK! Wishing you a year full of dreams come true, excellent grades and a few visits with me!
