Family Lessons

Family Lessons by Allie Pleiter

  I loved the story line, helping orphans find homes. It has lots of action that you would expect in a good western type book, and great characters.

 What I didn't like is that two orphans still didn't find homes, and some one was stealing things that were old or broken and giving them back repaired looking almost new, book doesn't say who did that or what happened to the rest of the orphans.

Ski Hat

This is a ski hat I knit for a friend of my sister's using the same yellow ski hat pattern, just different colors. I do have several more hat patterns done, and one I am working on, which I will be adding later.

These are free patterns, and I hope you use them for the Hat Charity in Maine that I have told you about. Life is hard enough with out being  hungry, homeless and cold too.

Her name is Linda and the mailing address is:
Country Knitting Of Maine
351 White Schoolhouse Rd
Madison, Maine 04950-3202


So get those hats done, and mailed before the first of November 2013 and who knows, you just might win some prize too and be doing something worthwhile!!
