This new year, my resolution was to learn a new skill, so the domestic goddess in me picked... Knitting.
Yes dear friends, I have the knitting bug!! The clicks are not only from the needles but from my poor tormented wrists (memo: don't take up knitting with carpal tunnel, it's difficult) and for once the odd expletive isn't all I'm dropping!
I decided to make a scarf for The Hubby, who wishes to point out that the sight of a left handed knitting is not to be missed, Morecambe and Wise should have done a sketch on it!!!
I went out and got a ball of plum coloured wool (it was that, snot green or hooker pink and I just couldn't ) and settled to a nice evening knitting and chatting to Hubby. He went off to bed, and I went to grab a coffee, when I hear an almighty bang, a crash and the dog yelp. In I rush to be greeted with my wool everywhere, knitting needles sticking out the dog bed and my nearly 10 inch long scarf full of hole, which contained a small black and white face, with a very satisfied expression on it!!!
She was eating me ******** knitting!! I swear it was like something out of Tom and jerry, all I needed was Amber to say That's muh boy, and my night would have been complete!!
took me 10 mins to her silly head out the hole! The she put her leg through another hole making my scarf resemble Rab C Nesbitt's vest!
Don't think the WI would be too impressed with my efforts, or the sight of a near 6ft woman with newly dyed purple hair (well it looked redder on the packet) turning up saying like me scarf??
