The dangers of BIG KNITTING were made all too clear last evening. I can only manage to KNIT one row at a time and only on the sofa where I can rest the ends. I was halfway along the row when Ronald joined me. The first and last two stitches in a KNIT row are PURL STITCHES and it was as I was attempting this manoeuvre that Ronald sustained an injury.

Now as you know I am still playing Nursey-Nursey to my poor dear mother and little hirsute Roley, I certainly do not want to play Nursey-Nursey to Roland’s nether regions.

So ladies beware DO NOT ATTEMPT BIG KNITTING WHEN IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO GENTLEMEN.

Yours Dangerously
