I just woke up from a nap under an afghan my aunt knitted for my mom, her little sister, so what you say about knitting being part of family history really resonates for me.

I would give anything right now to be around my Grandmother and her sister while they were crocheting/knitting after drying up the dishes after cooking a big family meal . Lots of family history in those " knitting talks " Magdahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335449359566720836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12077223.post-5122657697121664502012-11-07T18:27:37.340-08:002012-11-07T18:27:37.340-08:00Hi Mariann-

I was amazed at the records I found in just a short time. Of course, women also worked in knitting factories so that's yet another resource.<br /><br />Thanks for commenting Mariann. I really appreciate it!<br /><br />GenaGena Philibert-Ortegahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12853485188995075397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12077223.post-43492722969931223102012-11-07T17:28:10.773-08:002012-11-07T17:28:10.773-08:00You offer good resources -- histories and records....You offer good resources -- histories and records. To me, knitting is an endearing occupation. I tried it in college, and my younger sister really got involved in knitting during her final illness. You make a good point -- I have no knowledge of my female ancestors and knitting. I could probably learn more about them by pursuing this line.
