Another beautiful Sunday morning. The coffee was brewing and Isabella decided to gather her hoard of National Geographic magazines into her favourite reading corner. She had a special place for those pre-1978 additions. This attraction for Isabella was not just for the out-of-this-world journalistic magnificence but for the photographs of the kitchie-kitch knitwear worn by all those captured by the lens. It was a special era for knitwear across the world. An era Isabella’s hippie parents embraced and encouraged throughout her childhood. Turtle necks, cable knits, toggle buttons, random hues of burnt orange and brown. Isabella knew her hoard of National Geographics was really meeting her need to relish her roots. God bless National Geographic.
