What Do You Call a Sweater With No Arms And No Neck?

Swatch.

Get it?

oh never mind. This is a going to be a strange post; just go with it.

I have this whack of Ultra Alpaca I bought on sale during the changing of the owner at the LYS last summer. I am trying out an idea I blogged about last fall.  Here is the idea so far lying on something I noticed while I was knitting: the back door matt.

Matt.  Get it?

Anyway.  The mat came from IKEA in January, which in geological time is not too long after I bought the yarn. Practically simultaneously, in effect. I guess I like this colour green. This is where you can find a mat just like it in the catalogue.  If you're feeling lazy, I'll just stick the whole thing here:

Wipe your feet on the way out, okay?

Thanks

Q: How many surrealists does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Fish!

That's a cool mat. I like the, erm, swatch! Especially the green, gotta love that green.

You can't go wrong with green.

Love the rug! You'll coordinate well with your house when you finish your sweater.

Sublimation of spring fever, no doubt.

A sweater..........something a child puts on, when their mother is cold.

Well except my kids, who don't listen to me. Hope springs eternal though eh?

Also green is my favorite colour, just saying!!!

The post title and answer make me chuckle each time I see it. Yes, I have a bit of an 'off' sense of humor, I find it helps. Just as life is much easier now that I no longer remember having my sanity. :)

Well, I chuckled. Guess weird minds think alike. I love the mat(t), too. I've been teaching astronomy to fifth graders for the past month, so to me it looks like the solar system. (Don't take my word for it, though. I don't actually know anything about astronomy. I'm one lesson ahead of the kids. Livin' on the edge.)
