"The Book and the Rose"

A 2001 movie, which I'd not heard of. However, I think it's easily earned a place in my "All Time Favorites" category!!!

Came across it and had no idea what it was about but lately movies from the 30s and 40s have been interesting and when we saw the era of this movie, the girls and I decided to give it a try - so glad we watched.

It really IS a Feel Great movie!!!

Not at all like the "Boy in the Striped Pajamas", now that was a movie that is not with a happy ending, but gets a huge recommendation from me, as well.

Some More Knitted Baby Items

Along with the vintage sweaters, I love to knit matching booties and hats. Here are some booties I recently finished (while the weather was so rainy... now I only have time to catch up in the gardens!)

The pattern book is by Val Pierce; 20 To Make Baby Bootees. I found my copy in Michaels but I am sure there are copies on Amazon, too.

Easy to follow patterns! I converted these into a circular needle version, because I am not a huge fan of seams and try to eliminate them, when possible.

I highly recommend this book. Val Pierce gives several different bootie designs and a couple are really adorable!
