    Woe is me - my hat has holes

    In this long period of not going out, one of the woollen caps I made has been left pushed into one of the bookcase shelves and has stayed there for some time. Upon pulling it out I found that something has made a couple of holes in it - probably the infants of something with six legs and an exoskeleton.

    Although it is going to be perfectly possible for me to undo and remake it once I find the remaining yarn - and I do have several others in perfect condition (I immediately went to find them to check) I am decidedly peeved about this. It is entirely my fault for not putting it away properly, of course.

    I thought I'd just put a reminder here, in case anyone else has an item vulnerable to attack left undisturbed in these strange times.
