Its a shame my Mum can't really knit anymore due to her arthritis as I'd love to sit and knit with her. She still enjoys listening to me rabbit on about what I'm working on though. Yay for all the girls helping each other :) That’s a great image, the pair of you knitting together, particularly with the younger helping the older.

I convinced her to try by giving her the yarn! We were talking about our next projects and she wants to make a sweater for herself. Actually, she’s not sure she likes knitting socks.

Although you did warn her that she has entered into a whole new world of knitting by turning her first heel right? I'm also drooling over that rainbow yarn, yum!

A good statement on life as we age...mothers helping daughters and daughters helping mothers. How very appropriate for Mother's Day!
