I Love You in Braille Knit Washcloth
When I was small I watched a gentleman reading from a Braille book and I found it utterly fascinating! When I looked closely I thought it a true marvel that with a series of bumps that to my eye looked so similar could spell out the letters and words that made my love of reading possible. It pleased me to know that my love of reading was not restricted to those who have their sight.
