My father told me that his grandmother, Minnie, used to
make quilts. They were not art, he assured me, just made up of
snippets of old clothes , so as not to waste fabric and used to keep
warm. He remembers one, he says, all in grays and blacks and plaids.
Not art, he says, not meant to be beautiful.
Sounds like beauty to me. Maybe even art...

Pi shawl thus far
Doesn't look like much yet. But it grows. Pattern is from wendyknitsdotnet in celebration of Elizabeth Zimmerman's 100th birthday.
This looks complicated! Stay safe! Lovely flying cat!
