A Vehicle for Knitting
I find myself obsessing over knitting. Is it rude to sit in a meeting with a lucy bag in progress on your lap? I somehow think that I don't want to know the answer to that question. I find myself carting a project around in the cavernous tote that now masquerades as my pocketbook. Good bye slim little stylish hipsters...HELLO GRANNY PACK! I am so dangerous with that huge bag. It is a burial ground for receipts and outdated Michael's and Jo anne's coupons...I think there are some Haitian refugees from 1983 in there. Anyway ...it serves its primary purpose which is to make my new obsession portable. Portage knitting...it could become a new Olympic sport!!! With all of us knitters competing! Not for fastest knitter..leave that to Miriam Tegels...we could compete for most creative use of time. For sure knit in the car ...bribe non-knitting friends to drive...offer to pick up the tab for today's latte!! LOL Seriously, I think I am earning a reputation for rudeness...because I have knitted just about everywhere !! I thought I was practicing restraint because I didn't try to whip my knitting out in church and my hypochondriacal neuroses don't allow me to knit on the toity! Time will cure all...I suppose...this first flush of Love will fade and I won't spend all my leisure time planning projects and all my money stashing wool (i am thinking of setting myself up with a tin cup and a banjo ..need to drum up some money...I think I have spent more money on wool since the summer than I spent on clothes for the whole past decade!) Enough blogging..I need a fix...my knitting awaits!!
