A Bluestocking Knits

Sarah Louise, via Blackbird, wishes to see windows for "Show and Tell" this week — here is one of mine.  Our little house is in dire need of a coat of paint, and things look rather shabby, I’m afraid, so I won’t show the outsides just yet.  This is part of the window in our living room, a fairly typical bungalow arrangement of two tall double-hung windows flanking a rather large picture window.  Apparently this is the original 1929 varnish, and I’m quite impressed that nobody has ever painted it over.  When Laura was a baby, there was a new apartment building going up directly across the street, and she used to sit there in front of the open window, for hours it seemed, and watch the comings and goings of the construction crews.  It seems to have been a favorite spot for babies over the years, as hers were not the first teeth marks on that ledge!
