The coolness and soothing in weather
due to yesterday’s rain didn’t last long and with my little grand daughter off to her nanus(maternal grandfather) until
evening there was only one thing to do…crochet little projects
I made three bookmarks to give one
away to my daughter’s friend.This was really a fun and quick project to do during a
comfortable weather and moments. Hoping these will spur reading of the owners.
My grand daughter earned the first
one of the crocheted bookmark and another the fan shaped one, for taking it
over to her friend, her family lives just 100 feet away to our house. She had
her book mark the little one for drawing book which she needs frequently.
Previously when I made this one in
self designed colour, my daughter came in from Delhi. She was so delighted for
its beauty and of course it’s her authentic need too. She reads a
lottttttttttttt. She is a writer.
She said “mummy you should be a
professional crocheter, you would make lots of money (extra money from leisure
activities).” Bless her, she’s serious. That is the magical thing about making
little things for your children. It doesn’t matter if they are blurry, not
perfect or little bit. Your children will always think your creations are the
best.
I will rant about …may be in coming
post about …..a growing epidemic that not many people are even aware about (as
described by my librarian friend). As per my friend many…mannnnnnnnnnnnny of
readers came in this library to read are not using proper bookmarks when
reading book!!
Yes, I know that is very hard to
believe but I myself have seen it with my own eyes. Some people leave behind
the library receipt, doctor appointment slips, and papers with names/phone
numbers on them, invitation cards, a blank check, photographs, even a candy
wrapper.
