Knitting Fei Until Yuleti By JACKIE S With nary a thought of d meeting ten minutes late, felt a nightmare of a spider web, my gosh," I groaned, "it's her "The knitting season," I th wove my way to a seat. I hoped, foolishly, that perhaps my sorority would be the only one bitten by this annual bug, but I was wrong. To all of you uninitiated, every year about this time a period of domesticity hits our fair ladies. Who starts it and where it comes from are unknown. The only pre requisite for the knitting season seems to be the spirit of the Yule tide. Those aren't telephone wires hanging around the campus. From now till Christmas the grounds will be strung with red, yellow, and other brightly tinted threads. Life and limb are in danger, and many a weary male will plead for mercy after holding the yarn as sweet Susie rolls her knitting thread. Needles become weapons, and yarn becomes a trap. Boys, if the girl-friend slips her arms around you, don't think she's being romantic; she's simply measuring you for a sweater. The girls making,like Sherlock Holmes as they study footprints on the campus are actually determining the size of their true love's tootsie. Professors, resign yourselves. Christmas presents must be made; not even classes will be allowed to interfere. Your lectures must vie in importance with a dropped stitch. Does anybody know how to turn a heel?
