MY granddaughter has been trying for a baby for the past eight years and her wishes came true when she gave birth on Sunday to baby Lillie.

In the meantime, I had started to knit a gown for her. 


What are your thoughts?

As her dreams had faded, I put the knitting down and forgot it, and when I found it, I couldn’t remember where I was on the pattern.

A very kind lady from the Kindle Centre named Karen Cunningham asked for it and told me she could knit it, and within a day she had knitted and completed the baby gown.

Thank you, thank you, Karen!
