Diane's Gift to Mary

The text reads:

Follow your heart

wherever it takes you

and be happy

Life is brief and very fragile

and only loaned to you for awhile

Wake up every morning

with the thought

that something wonderful

is about to happen

Maggie's Gift

Maggie's message: 

Have you seen the movie, “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants?” It’s a cute movie about four friends who shared a pair of Lucky Jeans. The girls were all shapes and sizes, but miraculously the jeans fit all of them perfectly and brought them good luck when they were wearing them. 

One summer the girls were going to four different locations so they decided to mail the jeans to each other, each one keeping the good luck pants for one month and then passing them on. The point of this story...

Sisterhood of the Traveling Socks

I have a pair of magical socks I would like to share with my knitting sisters. Take them for a week, wear them every day for an hour or so, or better yet, sleep with them on. Think positively about what you want to change or bring to you, then pass them on to another knitting sister--wash them first if you like--or not. Believe that these socks are magical. They could change your life. 

Love,

Maggie

The socks were knit by Maggie,
 using yarn that came from Annette via Jean
