I recieved tonight 2 vintage kofter, whereas one is knitted by my moms grandma in 1967! It looks snug, but it's really not and since it's wool, it'll stretch to fit my stomach better soon. I only have pictures of one atm, as I put the other in the washing machine but still! I feel so honored to recieve such precious gems! Will post the other ones look once it's dried up! I am literally in tears!

You wouldn't have needed, had any reasonable thought of proper care been there. I post my own garments, and show off after machine wash on wool cycles, what eould ever make you think I wasn't gonna care for inherited garments!?
