She was sure she had read the knitting pattern correctly, yet the arm holes were in the wrong places and the less said about the neck the better.
Still she sat there for an hour keeping warm until her husband came home with the scissors and, before freeing her remarked, "Darling, you look like the love-child of The Clangers.

Good one! I was giggling on the first line!
oh hahah this is great! Love the part where the husband cuts her free with scissors!
That's great! And love 'the less said about the neck the better' lol
As Nora Ephron wrote, "I feel bad about my neck." :-)
hahaha the thought of her sitting there stuck in the sweater all day...and the husband getting his remark in before cutting her loose...lol...probably a wise idea....
This is SO good. So concise, yet two apt and telling thoughts wrapped up in it. Congrats.
thanks all for visiting - i have tried to read all the posts in return if not commentating on each
heres to people still calling each other darling.
Now why didn't I spot the Clanger similarity before? This very funny.
Funny and clever
and those Clangers are a cute bunch :)
What a visual ... I can see him snipping her out of the pink 'thing.'
;)
(Especially loving "the less said about the neck the better.")
Totally and completely delightful! Funny!
Very funny.
What a strange idea to parcel someone up like that.
And somebody must have done the knitting to start with.
How funny! Love that her husband had to cut her out of it!
thanks all - i wish i'd done something about her being a spy
Ha! She DOES look like those critters :)
