As was my grandmother's hand. It stood perpendicularly on her wrist. Her wrist stood in an angle to her arm too. The effect was a hook.

(She had been stung by a wasp when she was only a few days old. Her whole arm grew twisted as a result. Surgery later in life made things a lot better. She ended with "just" the hooked hand/wrist. She became a teacher in textile crafts with that hand. As a five year old, I think I was the last pupil she taught how to knit.)

My grandmothers house was white with black shutters

The house my grandparents rented for years looked like it was ready to fall over, everything leaned including the windows.

I remember these:



They had two, the place was like 98 degrees in the middle of a January blizzard.
