Roses are red
Sheep have wool
All these new babes
Keep my knitting queue full
I put down my sweater
I set aside a hat
All those works in progress?
No one has time for that
Over pattern, color, and yarn
I hemmed and I hawed
For an itchy black pullover
Her parents might find odd
So lovely lark by Quince & Co
In the color Petal
On “In Threes” by Kelly Herdrich
I finally did settle
I try to be so thoughtful
I think of my gifts as well planned
Yet I’m making a light colored knit for a newborn
That, “Sorry! You must wash by hand.”
I’ll hurry to finish this sweater
Though here I’ll admit where I fail
See I manage to finish the knitting
But can’t seem to get it in the mail
Now I’m off to pretend to do laundry
While instead I watch netflix and knit
I need my own sweater, I’ve decided
In Lark because I think it’s the…
loveliest yarn I’ve used in awhile.
