Baa-hemian  Rhapsody 
 This is all real wool! 
 It's not a fantasy, 
 Caught in a woolslide, it's a lovely reality! 
 Open your stash, 
 Don't think of the cash, just see.............. 
 I'm just a knitter, I need no sympathy 
 Because it's cast on now, in the round 
 Towards new socks I am bound, 
 Any way the wool rolls, doesn't really matter to me, to me............ 
 Mama, cast on again, 
 Put the needles underarm, 
 Where they can't do any harm; 
 Mama, socks have just begun 
 But now I find I just can't put it down! 
 Mama  ooooooo 
 Didn't mean to make you sigh 
 If they're not knit and done this time tomorrow 
 Carry on, carry on, as knitting really matters................ 
 Too late, I've reached the heel, 
 Swapped my tens for number nines, 
 Needles clicking all the time, 
 Goodbye everybody, I've got to knit! 
 Gotta leave you all behind and face the toe....... 
 Mama oooooooo ( any way the wool rolls) 
 I don't want to frog! 
 I sometimes wish I'd never cast on at all............. 
 I see a little ladder of a dropped stitch 
 Pick it up, pick it up 
 Can I do it nice and neatly? 
 Loosening and tightening, very very frightening me! 
 Zimmerman and Fassett, 
 Liz Lovick, Katie Davis 
 And co.... magnifico.................. 
 He's just a poor stitch, laddered down the sock leg 
 Spare him his gauge from this monstrosity! 
 Easy now, pick him up, can I pick him up, 
 Feather and fan, I will not let you go - let you go 
 Print o' the wave, I will not let you go - let you go 
 Old shale and more, I will not let you go - let you go 
 Will not let you go - let you go (never) 
 Never let you go - let you go 
 Never let you go - oooooo 
 No no no no no no no! 
  Oh mama mia, mama mia, got you now, 
 My pattern has special place for you 
 For you 
 For you! 
 So you think you confuse me with Kitchener stitch 
 So you think I can't take you to my Stitch'n'Bitch? 
 Oh baby, I can finish you baby, 
 Just got to cast off, just got to cast off now right here! 
 Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, 
 Knitting really matters, 
 Anyone can see, 
 Knitting really matters, to me 
 Any way the wool rolls...........................
Wee bit of vintage glam for a Sunday
