Small Man is learning to knit. His first attempt started with 20 stitches, and by row 7, he had 24 stitches, despite having dropped three along the way (no idea how he managed that). Anyway, I suggested we cast that piece off and start again, and rather than throw it away, I sewed the small knitted rectangle into an egg cosy for him. It sits on his boiled egg every morning at breakfast and he’s a very happy little Vegemite.
