These green crocheted motifs were a gift to my mother, a paediatrician, from a nurse she worked with. I placed them on a soft cream skirt and finished the hem with delicate lace.
A gesture shared between two women who cared for children now continues in something made to be worn.
With its sale, a perennial lady’s mantle will be planted—its soft, rounded leaves echoing the crocheted circles. A photograph will be shared on our Instagram.
