Welcome to Charity Knitting |
|
It was evening. My parents were away and Mrs. Summers was babysitting us. Keeping guard on our den couch, bathed in the blue light of the television, she sat knitting mittens. I had assumed that the mittens were for one of her grandchildren. She had three and sometimes she took my siblings and me to play with them. In the knitting universe of my childhood, people knit for their families. Usually one project at a time. Children and husbands got the usual stuff; scarves, socks, sweaters, hats, and mittens. Sometimes extended family members received baby blankets and booties, possibly an afghan. Mrs. Summers was making mitten after mitten. I noticed she had filled her knitting bag with them. More pairs of mittens than her grandchildren could ever use. So I wondered. Who was she knitting all those mittens for? |
