I'm so glad you're still blogging and I'm still writing.

I am particularly appalled that I didn't realize this little trick much sooner since where I live gloves are so often needed.Roberta Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032348890093502999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2729729299765225091.post-46180134508509030112012-01-19T00:56:58.988-07:002012-01-19T00:56:58.988-07:00I never stopped to think about that either.

How did I live this long and not know that right-side out, inside-out reverses gloves from one hand to the other. <br /><br />The blue gloves I was wearing were knit without seams and look exactly the same on either side so at no time did it occur to me that one was simply turned wrong way round. <br /><br />The astonishing part of this is to have lived this long in such a cold clime and yet I never knew that.Roberta Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032348890093502999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2729729299765225091.post-61944941750309662302012-01-18T07:34:27.875-07:002012-01-18T07:34:27.875-07:00This was too funny Roberta.

Frugality can be carried to extremes ;) Let Hub wear inside out gloves if he wants to - I'm with you; now and then we just have to have something that does as it should do.Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14555472024981357622noreply@blogger.com
