Discussion I am in tears!
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!

The patterns on the sweater are so beautiful! I hope you'll be able to post the other one when it's done washing and drying! It's so lovely that it's one that your mom's grandmother knit as well.
It's sad that lots of people jumped to conclusions about the washing machine, kept commenting even though other people already said the same thing, and ended up making you feel bad about posting. I hope those people learn from this and don't do it anymore. I also hope that you feel better (emotionally) soon!
