He held the wool, I crocheted. It became something I could do whilst sitting at his bedside and it required no conversation, just a peaceful, joint activity - it was his last and I shall treasure it forever.<br />I know how much your shawl means to you. Thank you for sharing.<br />Best wishes Claire<br />Claireclairenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-74207237962680409122012-04-15T19:23:50.329-07:002012-04-15T19:23:50.329-07:00The photos alone are exquisite, but then you throw...The photos alone are exquisite, but then you throw in your incredible shall too!

It sounds like it's been with you through some difficult times, and I love that when you wrap this shawl round you, you will think of the love of your mother, and the love from her that wrapped round you, it's so poetic and symbolic, a really special piece, I hope that when it eventually gets passed to one of your family, it goes with the stories and memories of your love for your mom. What a special piece Lori. you look radiant in it, and your husband has done a wonderful job of photographing his lioness in the wild!
