Some Like it Knit
Today would have been Marilyn's 80th birthday. She died 44 years ago at 36 years old. My two favorite facts about Marilyn are that she wore a Size !2, so if she were a star today she's be doing commercials for Jenny Craig - and fact two: she was a knitter. Ain't all the prettiest girls???





Where do you get these photos? You have absolutely the best photos of any knitting blog I have ever read!

I didn't know she knitted. How nice. I like her even more now. Did you see the TOday show spot on her this week?

my mom knew her back in the late 50's early 60's. was one of her hairdresssers. my mom remembers her as being very sweet and kind. they did not knit together though.
