Wisteria Fischer

AFGHAN CROCHET PATTERN

Isn’t it funny how a childhood memory can be suddenly jolted with a word or a song or a smell?

I often really struggle to come up with names for my patterns, so we play ‘name that pattern’ in the team. This one was no exception.
A few plays on Wisteria were being tossed around when I suddenly remembered jumping off a garden wall with my little brother to see if we could fly.

That wall was about 6-foot high, covered in ivy, and on its brick walls hung a carved wooden board that read ‘Wisteria Fischer.’
I was probably around 8, my brother around 5 and Wisteria Fischer was the house that we grew up in. We jumped off that wall many a time and when the wall got too small – or we got a little braver – we jumped off the garage roof. LOL, how we didn’t break a leg! Come to think of it, my brother did………..but that’s a story for a different day.

I hope that while you are making your Wisteria Fischer, you remember a little part of your childhood. It was fun to remember a little part of mine and fly like Superman again.
