Notes

Started this for my dad on September 18 - just 13 days after he was hopsitalized and diagnosed with Stage 4 Renal Cell Carcinoma. I made it through 4 pattern repeats before he passed away on October 15.

I sat next to him on several occasions knitting this…and I will still finish it.

Someday…
