Little Red Riding Hood

Mummy has become an avid knitter. After cutting her teeth on few scarfs and wot not, she started on her first major challenge. To knit Lucy a Little Red Riding Hood cardigan that a) would look like a cardigan b) Lucy would like it c) would fit and d) could be used for school

There were numerous technical (it's hard and if you go wrong you have to start that bit again) and logistical (the wool shop could not get hold of enough wool of the correct colour/batch and the staff were lovely but not really modern) challenges. But Mummy overcame them all.

So Little Red Riding Donk has an a) lovely cardigan that she b) loves to bits that c) fits her like a glove and even has a bit of growing room in it and d) she has been using as part of her school uniform. Crikey! Well done Mummy!
