My right ear....

[Ally]

...is just perfect for holding, and retaining, a crochet needle.

How do I know this little known fact?!

I'm knitting away and Conor asks if I'd drive him down to the tennis club as he's running late.

No problem.

Whilst out I pop into Mercadona to get some eggs and bread.

Then decide to pop into Tiede's for some of their fab coffee and walnut cake.

Jobs done..back home and I resume my knitting.

Come to a cable row..yep, you've guessed it.

Crochet hook was still tucked safely by my ear.

And nobody, but nobody, mentioned the needle behind the ear trick....... wouldn't happen hereabouts...... you would have been grilled no end.

Oi love, what's with the crochet needle, and don't go giving me any of that cable row nonsense?

I am multi tasking WM (you're a bloke..you won't understand ) and am able to crochet and cable in the same pattern.
