RE: Scarf for My Oldest Son

What a nice thing to be able to give gifts but you make to your family. By grandmother used to both mit and crochet and taught me how to do the basic steps when I was little… but do you think I remember? No. It's good to have a practical gift. I used to sew with a sewing machine in my husband at the time was jealous of the time I spent on the machine so eventually it began to collect dust. Keep knitting! I admire you for it. You're so gifted! Handsome son, too!!

Thank you. I used to sew all of our clothing - back in the day when I was able to get fabric for like 50 c a yard in the big fabric outlets.
A friend and I would drive to Anaheim and buy a year's worth of fabric - and not spending a whole lot...
Now, fabric is so expensive and clothing so cheap....

Funny how that happened.... clothes are being made in other countries by people working for less than can be made here by our wages, I think. How is the yarn prices?
