Wherefore Art Thou?

I have lost my knitting.

As per always, wherever I go, I would take a small bag of knitting with me. As it happens, I’m knitting a series of small squares (because it IS Hip to Be Square, no?), so I just have one of those toiletries bag all snug in my tote.

As it happens, I was traipsing all over KL on Friday, took it out, show it off (‘tu bukan mengait, tu memintal’ piped my ever bright friend), put it back in.

As it happens I didn’t even think about the bag and its contents until Sunday, when holidays are nearly over and I need some distraction and started to look for it.

and as we all now know, As it happens, it wasn’t in my bag. It wasn’t in that big basket of clean clothes that I haven’t had the chance to tuck into the closet (Well in the end I did, to look for my knitting and it wasn’t in there).

M upturned her house (where I had spent hours eating, gossiping and eating) and it wasn’t there,  P upturned her car (where we sat gossiping while going to M’s house, a shopping mall and several lepak-ing places) and nada, nothing too.

i doubt that it was at Secret Recipe (where we went for lunch), nor is it at Old Town White Coffee (supposedly on the ‘waterfront’ but the water happened to be at the back of the shop – how lah???).

The last resort would be to look under my bed.

Ok. That will take awhile. Hik.

But juuust in case.

Anyone who has seen a toiletries bag (from MAS i believe), dark brown, inside it are:

one circular needles 4.2mm

one ball of light yellow yarn (with some knitting on the needle)

one thread cutter (looks like garden shears except it’s small and used like a pair of scissors)

two crochet hooks

two needle protectors

several large safety pins

several paper clips

about 6 inches of bright pink yarn

one VERY IMPORTANT PATTERN BOOK

can I have it back please?

Ok ok. You can have the stuff if you want, but could I at least have the pattern book back? The one that is tattered and filled with notes like “Aiyah so ugly this pattern!” or “@#%$ so difficult!”.

Because I’m like..in the middle of this blanket thingy I’m knitting?..and I’ve only got like..40 more squares to do….
