Royalty and Knitting and Fingering yarn

I am sure you recognize all the people in the picture below.

The Queen Mother and 

Princesses Margaret and Elizabeth

are knitting with yarn sent from Canada

for the war effort. 

Trying to figure if this is just a photo "op" or do they really know how to knit.

Whatever!
 It is neat - knitting and royalty going together.
I always new that knitters/crocheters were special people!

There is also a short film out there called
 the Royal Road.

In it the princesses are "sort of knitting".

It is kind of funny because Margaret picks up
 some knitting,

 Elizabeth grabs it from her,
looks at it with a puzzled look - trying to figure out what is going with the yarn and needles
and then just puts it down!

Look at these colours!

Just arrived - Lana Grossa Fingering yarn. 
The colours are super in this picture but so much nicer in real life!
I can picture so many beautiful wraps, shawls, sock and so much more.
Each colour is "one of  a kind" - so drop by soon to get your special colour.

See you on Sat for Knit in Public Day! 
It will be fun!
