Yellow Booties

by Veronica on February 29, 2008

in Life

Okay okay, I KNOW today is the international blog365 day of rest. But hey! I am a sucker for punishment.

Simply Gorgeous

Because I received the most amazing booties in the mail from Tiff, I just had to post about them. Her Mum knits them to give to women with fertility issues.

I did take my own photos of them (and their gorgeous wrapping) but my camera cord is tucked away in a box somewhere and I am just hoping and praying I can find it (and some internet access) in time for my Weekly Winners.

Tiff says on her post about them

When I was trying to conceive I read about an old wives’ tale. It went something along the lines of; a pair of yellow booties knitted and given to a couple trying to conceive, would bring them good luck in fertility and a pregnancy would occur soon after the gifting.

So there! They work really well according to Tiff. Not this cycle because I am on the pill (yay! sex=fun!) but next month when I stop taking it.

Tiff, thankyou so so much. They made my day when I saw them in the mailbox.

Beautifl booties. I wish I could knit. I tried to teach myself and just wound up with some pretty elaborate cat toys. *sigh*

Isn’t that part of a song? “tie a yellow bootie ’round an old oak tree” No .. wait a minute … AAWWW, that was RIBBON!! .. Yeah, I mean, why would you want to tie a bootie around a tree, anyway? Unless, of course, you used it as a signal – like “hubby is home!!” or “coast is clear!”. maybe, huh?
