No, that’s not a description of my husband. It’s the locks in the photo!!

Lanose is the prompt that Brian teased us with. Who else but an Aussie would come up with a word like that? But be honest now: who of you knew that word? Since a variation of “wool” is actually our family’s surname I thought to go back to a simpsonized version of us, the core four. The son on the bottom right actually had the nickname “Wet, Wild and Wooly”. Very lanate and full of lanosity.
Obviously, if you know my surname, I’m partial to wool and knitting. The tools. The result. The worker. Ragtag Daily Prompt: Knit PS: The doll has been crocheted but its clothes have been knitted.


Wool, of course, is Wolle in German. Which, considering my surname, leaves me spoilt for choice. Here is wool basket and a wool snuggery. “Wool chamber” and “wool parlour” didn’t sound good so I turned to a dictionary for inspiration – I think that our living room will be called “snuggery” from now on.
