Knitting on a Plane
Created By: Anita Morton
Knitting on a Plane
After a terribly frustrating morning involving cancelled flights, an
overbooked flight causing unavailable seat and lost luggage, my daughter
and I were enroute to San Antonio via Memphis. To our dismay, we were
given the back row seats on a small plane. It also was the noisiest plane
trip I had ever experienced. We were all poised to be crabby and tense.
I took out my short #7 needles with cotton yarn and proceeded to finish a
washcloth (a nice small project for a plane trip). The seven year old girl in
the seat nest to me was transfixed! She watched every stitch I made and
asked wonderful, intelligent questions.
Her mother also had a two year old with her; she crochets. However she
assured the girl that she would see to it that she could be taught how to
knit.
I finished the cloth and gave it to my new friend. For the rest of the flight
she folded it into many shapes and designs; I am sure it will be put to
good use for months to come!
By the time we got to Memphis, I’d finished another cloth for the little
sister. The time had flown by, children were entertained and I forgot to be
crabby!!! Another day saved by knitting!
