Queen's Cot Covers
Every year the Queen's twelve coteovors are sent to different maternity hospitals throughout Greater London (states the "Daily Telegraph"). The demand for them is great, and in order that as many babies as possiblo should have the honour of sleeping beneath these soft and fleecy, gay pink and blue covers, only the newly-born babies are allowed to use them, and that only for a few days, until the nest claimants have mado their appearance in this world. One of the reasons why the Queen always chooses the same shell pattern is that now her Majesty can crochet these without looking at her.work at all, and the covers are made on the many occasions when the Queen is engaged in conversation and wishes to have an occupation for her fingers that will not distract the attention of her eyes.
