Poem from a friend

If you are feeling kinda blue
I have a special tip for you
Don't get in a special snit
Just grab a needle and knit, knit, knit

If you should knit a special gift
And it's returned and starts a tift
Don't hesitate to send it here
Where it will be cherished, my dear.

My friend Mary sent this to cheer me up after the beautiful shrug I knitted for my mother-in-law's birthday was returned. Apparently, she's too old to wear something like that. The funny thing is that Mary is actually 77 and loved the shrug when she saw it in an e-mail I sent. I really like the shrug but just the sight of it gets me mad, and quite frankly, Mary will appreciate it much more. I'll even leave the brooch that's currently on!
