Marlboro Summer Sale Portrait #42
Book: The pictures were made by Maurice Sendak. Title: "The Golden Key" by George MacDonald. Published 1967. It's a good size for holding, it's old, the illustrations sold it: an affinity for things Maurice Sendak.
Hat: Handknit, subtle pattern, potentially loose fitting, green, grey, yellow, white blend is pleasant. It's soft, not itchy. Someone made it with someone particular in mind. Being a new owner puts me in a position to continue the story. That's snuggly.
