BLUE WOOL

Here's my knitting bag
With my wool,
It is blue wool,
With a pair of knitting needles,
To make a scarf.

Maybe get it finished for Christmas.
Maybe not.

I wish my mum would start some knitting.
But she only ever starts a line of mine.
I put it by my side on the settee,
To tempt me to do a line each day.

I buy the wool down the market
On a Thursday or a Saturday.
Because there's not many wool shops left
In Eastleigh now.

I've usually got about six or seven on the go.

I always do 2 plain and 2 purl.
I look forward to starting the new ones -
Getting started.

I don't seem to finish many.
