and came across it in the bathroom, top shelf of the linen closet. I'm pretty sure of who made it - it wasn't me!
It's very very heavy, so I know it's wool; and I'm wondering why I put it in the bathroom - I don't want it in a such a steamy place.

It has such a classic, heirloom look to it, did your Mum make it ?
Not my mother, but I'm pretty sure it was a close family friend - she and her husband were like grandparents to my brother and I.
