The crosspatch vest is 25% finished thanks to The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer (wonderful restaurant scene), The Awful Truth (ok), Kiss Them for Me (ok) - and my favorite so far - Holiday. At one point Katherine Hepburn just plunked down on the couch and pulled out her knitting with me. I don't know how much more screwball comedy I can stand.
Visited Lhasa Kharnak today on Telegraph - a beautiful place to gather ingredients for holiday potions, makes you feel like brewing things and stirring them with your staff.
Seeing Ms. Hepburn and reading about those movies I'm reminded of a photograph of Barbara Hutton knitting on the porch. And next to her sits Cary Grant, reading the paper. I think on such a rainy day I might conjure up Mr. Grant for a knitting buddy. He'd recite only the funny news stories and we'd have a good giggle over tea.
