It has been very cold at night, particularly as we have had the heating off during the day and when we get home, find that it takes a long time to warm up. So at the moment I am on the couch, snuggled under a lovely blanket my grandmother made me. Nan gave me this beautifully crocheted blanket, and it is so warm and snuggly. She made it herself in lovely modern colours which have always gone well with my decor.
Nan gave me the blanket as a Christmas present the year I was going to University. There it remained on my bed for many years, until I carefully packed it away in order to go travelling. It stayed at my mothers house, until a couple of years ago I returned to package all my treasures and send them to my new home.
It is so lovely to have it with me now, evoking the presence of my grandmother. Since I grabbed it off my spare bed the other night I have been wrapped in its warmth and memories.
