Russian Peasant Pattern #Handknit Sweater #ootd #ootdsocialclub


My mom's mom, who we called "Nana," was so talented at cooking, craft and style. I have a collection of her things, which I've tagged under "Nana" so you can see what her taste were like. She was also a sensational knitter, and she made this for me when I was young. I think I was 9. Obviously it was made big for me at the time. Thank goodness, because it means I get to wear it as a kind of cropped sweater every once in a while nowadays. How beautiful is this sweater? It took her a long time to make it. I think I could see it was beautiful back then, but it wasn't something I wore to school, because it wasn't Eva Joia (see below) or LA Gear. Haha. I wore it for holidays and the like. You'll see this again, soon I think. I want to wear it more often to make up for lost time.
Eva Joia Gitano clothing, popular during my elementary school days.
