Home Economics, Tuesday, period 1

Today Emma is in diamond shape. She has listened to the radio and has no wish to be overwhelmed by traumatized minds, thank you very much.

The desks are covered with yarn in a variety of colours and styles, knitting needles and papers with instructions written down on.

"Today we begin Operation: Knit a Scarf," Emma announced. "At the end of this class, you can either choose to take your knitting with you, or leave it in your box. Either way I want to see a scarf in a fortnight. One you can comfortably tie around your neck."


ooc: wait for the ocd is up. Knitting time!

"Huh?" John looked over at her. "I am?"

"I think that's why it's knotting like that," she said, nodding. "I mean, I don't knit normally, but I've watched other people."

"Guys don't usually knit," he grumbled and started trying to untie one of the knots.

"You sound like Roy," she grumbled right back, and said, "Some guys knit."

"Who's Roy?" John asked, ripping another piece of yarn and scowling at it.

"My boyfriend," she says, carefully knitting and making very, very little progress. "He's back in Scranton."

"Oh." John tried knitting again. It didn't work. "Hey, I didn't run into this past weekend, did I?"

"Did you meet any lifeguards?" she asked. "Because if not, no."

He tried to recall. "No, don't think so. You were a lifeguard? I think I heard you on the radio."

"Yes, that was me," she said, facepalming. "I'm trying to repress it. Who were you?"

"Captain Crichton," he said, making a face. "I tried to buy some hookers who turned out to be some of my friends."

"I didn't say anything," she said.

"Lifeguarding is a 24 hour job," he said mimicked at her.

"Are you wearing sunscreen?" she deadpanned.

John laughed and...ripped the yarn again. "Damn it."

"Maybe you're just destined to be scarfless," she said with a laugh.

"Probably," John agreed. "Couldn't we knit like a doily for the first try?"

"Doilies are lace," she said mildly.

John scowled. "I'm not a knitter."
