Thank you for the heartfelt post - it sounds like Dianne was a terrific person. Its amazing how touching it can be to hold a sweater or blanket made by the hand of a loved one.

I’m tearing up at my desk, and before I’ve finished my morning coffee.– My grandmother was a knitter and knitted all her grandkids a blanket, except me. She lost her eyesight before she got to mine. When she passed, my father gave me the first one she made (it always rested on the back of her sofa, I remember it fondly).
I cuddle with it when I am lonely, and often sleep with it.–my point? What you are doing is wonderful and will mean more to your family that what you may realize. Best of luck.

Oh sure go ahead, make me start my day by feeling all kinds of choked up…but really, such a beautiful sentiment, thank you for sharing.

Beautiful. The blanket, your dedication, your comments about Dianne - it sounds like she was lucky to know you, too, even if for a short time.

it’s in these times of our lives that simple things — a color, a texture, a moment — really connect us so deeply with someone. i can feel the tenderness and courage in your voice to pick up the pieces (literally and figuratively) of dianne’s legacy and continue her memory through a work tied between people through time. this really is a project in progress that has no beginning and no end. keeping you + your family in my thoughts.
