My great-granny is hip!

So who knew great-grannies loved lime-pop too?

This sweet soft crocheted hanger cover was just inherited by yours truly!  My mom went down to visit my grandparents in the Seattle area and to help them move from their long-time home into one of those "active community" type dealies.  That meant downsizing the grandparents stuff, which meant fun stuff for me!  I also received a divine jacket which will have its re-debut this holiday season.  Stick around!
