Mabel West

Dear family of Mabel West;
My Grandmother, Mabel Younghusband was a friend of Mabel West's. In 1990, when I was expecting our first child, my mother Freda Younghusband took Grandma to Mabel Wests house to see about a baby shawl, as Mabel West's knitting skills were legend. And although Mabel was old at the time, she created a shawl that I still cherish . Its pure white , exquisitely knitted with delicate little points all around the outside. We used it through 5 christenings. I have written down what I know about Mabel, including her obituary to keep with the shawl, now a family keepsake. It is a reminder of the steadfast friendships and capability of the ladies of South March.
