Back in Spring, the mother of one of my friends passed away. Nona had been a generous and proficient sock knitter for far longer than the brief 4 years that I had the pleasure of knowing her. She gave away the socks to whoever needed them.
Nona's generosity lives on in her family. My friend recently passed on Nona's leftover sock wool to me so that I could knit it up into children's socks to be sold at our school's Christmas Fair. The proceeds will go to the school which is attended by one of Nona's grandchildren, another one having graduated 2 years ago.
So begins my Christmas project: "Knitting for Nona".
So far, 2 1/2 pairs in 3 days:
