Some of
you may know I've been helping make up knitted teddies at LDNE's
Knit&Natter group for older ladies.
Another volunteer is Felicity, who recently retired from doing
book-keeping and accounts at LDNE.
During
the past couple of Knit&Natter sessions I've been sorting out the cupboard,
finding all sorts of bits including kit-form knitted teddies.
A teddy is made up of squares and rectangles:
one for the body and head and two each for the legs and arms.
When I sorted the bits a couple of weeks ago I
discovered a green set missing an arm. So
I took it home with a ball of matching wool, knitted an arm and took it all
back.
Friday just gone Felicity said
she'd sew up teddies whilst I did the cupboard and the ladies did their own
thing (there weren't many there due to trips away and the weather).
Right at bottom of the cupboard amongst a bag
of random knitted bits I found the missing green arm.
"Poo! Felicity, I've found that missing green arm. That green teddy's got three arms now,
although the one I did looks entirely different from the other" (I
couldn't get the tension the same)
"That's all right. This teddy could have a tail."
"I suppose it could."
Then I noticed the grin playing around Felicity's mouth.
Naughty Felicity!
