That lanyard around my neck isn’t for a panic button! It’s for my mailbox key!
The sweater I’m wearing is one of my hand knits. The blue wool yarn was purchased in the Aran Islands Ireland. I knit the sweater from the top down following an idea in a knitting book published in Norway in 1975. That was one of the first knitting books I ever purchased. How I found it I do not know but somehow I did when we first moved to Dublin in the late 1960’s.
Here am I age 11 with my father’s mother (Grandma Miller) when she was 85. How will I look at that age – assuming I get there.

Great photographs. I always enjoy your blog. Have a merry Christmas.
Happy Birthday again!
I have been wearing a sweater that I knitted at about the same time, also from the neck down, It is Aran style and from a French magazine. I think I got it to knit on a road trip. I seldom wore it early on, but now, suddenly I like it. And it has been so cold that it is comfortable. Usually it is too warm.
