I am not a great football fan, my husband is Welsh so not too interested and my son can take it or leave it. But there is no escaping it at the moment. This little badge was England's mascot from the glory days of 1966, it belongs to my brother and comes out every 4 years, it hasn't brought us much luck so far - maybe this year!
.....maybe not!
Oh wow! My mother in law has a knitted Willie the Lion which she knitted 1966. She brings it out every world cup, this year it has been the first year my sons (4 & 2) have met Willie. We are kind of hoping he might come to stay soon, so we can keep this family tradition going.
