KNITBITS
If you have any knitting-related songs, poems, stories, paintings
or other textile miscellanies to share with the rest of the knitting community
I'd be pleased to post them here.

I received an unusual message from the husband of a knitter this morning. He had been casting around the web trying to find a suitable gift for his wife on the eve of their 46th wedding anniversary. It was the eleventh hour and he was running out of time, when he came across this page of knitting poems. Bingo! As he'd written more than a few limericks over the years, he decided to pen another one to celebrate their 46 years of wedded bliss.

Ode to Margaret on our 46th anniversary

We've been married for so many years
But my deafness can drive her to tears.
Her problems are solved:
To ensure she can scold
She's decided to knit me new ears!!
