granie and my son
here are photos of my mother and my son, last sunday. She wanted him to help untangle some wool. He was really wanting to run away, but didn't dare disobey my mother ! "it itches !", "I'm bored, I might die !", "is this going to last any longer ?", was what could be heard … and much more. I can tell you the moment she finished and said "go", he basically FLEW away !

Oh my goodness I haven't seen skeins of wool in years I use to love sitting. With my hands in side a skein and trying unwind it before my mum could wind it up in a ball. I wonder do they still sell like that in the UK ?
