Five/Six Pick Up Sticks










Five/six
pick up sticks...

Frances Mae is six
on the sixth.

In addition to being
the youngest grandchild
Frances is Nana's knitwear
model.

Every sock, hat, sweater
is to her liking.
Not to worry...
Never a complaint...

Too large
too small,
too long,
too short,
the words never cross
her lips.

Every gift is modeled
upon receipt.

A photograph... of course,
what pose would you like?

Socks become hand warmers.
Mitts possess magical powers.
Hats become hugs... for the head.
Scarves transport one to magical kingdoms.

What more could a knitting Nana ask?

Happy Birthday Frances.
