I have been neglecting my blog for a week or two as we have had a few things happening.
I have decided that I will be knitting the 'Diamonds Are Trumps' jumper but have not been able to commence knitting yet. I am still waiting for the yarn I ordered - the mail is definitely taking longer due to that which shall not be named as well as many online companies being inundated with orders.
So while we are waiting for the knitting to begin, let's take another look at 1932 with who was born in 1932.From the movies (just for fun, I'll add my favourite movie for each one):
Elizabeth Taylor - National Velvet
Omar Sharif - Doctor ZhivagoAnthony Perkins - On The BeachPeter O'Toole - How To Steal A Million - he also holds the record for the most Academy Award nominations for acting without a win - eight! Ellen Burstyn - How To Make An American QuiltNow on to singers - and favourite song!
Johnny Cash - A Boy Named SuePatsy Cline - CrazyLoretta Lynn - Coal Miner's Daughter
Petula Clark - Don't Sleep In The SubwayLittle Richard - Tutti FruttiAnd some others:
John Williams - surely the most prolific movie composer Sylvia Plath - poetQuentin Blake - cartoonist/illustratorDian Fossey - zoologistI hope to be back next week with some 1932 knitting!
I hope your wool arrives soon. The pattern you have chosen is lovely - way too complex a knitting project for my skill level :-)
ReplyDeleteI think it looks more complicated than it is. It is a repetitive pattern once you get the colour changes happening.
DeleteIt was fun looking back at all those faces. Lots of talent!
ReplyDeleteThere certainly is! I have been humming songs all morning!
