“who curled up each night exhausted in her red-and-brownplaid shawl, and slept and slept, until the husband had to wake her to awaken her mother”
“who curled up each night exhausted in her red-and-brownplaid fabric, and slept and slept, until the husband had to wake her to awaken her mother”
For my mothers birthday i made her a shawl for hot summer days to protect her from the sun.
