Artsy Fartsy

Cool clear waters, babbling brook
You wanted yarn and took a look
You found some yarn that grabbed your fancy
Do business with her, it’s not chancy!

Dip and dye, dip and dye
On the rack the yarn will dry
Wrapped in paper with some candy
Sent to you, the knitter dandy.

Red and gold and peach and cream
Yarn is dyed like what I dream
Scent of fruit and color of flower
Mother nature has her power.

Honeydew and cantaloupe
Apple, peach and plum
Sweetly scented sock yarn strand
Wrapped around my thumb.

Lace and rib and seed and plain
Knit stitches all for Deb and Jane
Sonja, Rachel, Kim and Dani
Robert, ken and Steve and Stanley.

Toe up, heel down
Fancy ones that go to town
Everyday to wear to the barn
Socks for everyone knit from yarn.

Fingering and worsted weight
Dpns from zero to eight
Circular needles, dpns
Look at all the sock knit trends

Shearing sheep, spinning wool
Handle with fine-crafted tool
Knit it up on bamboo sticks
Hand knit socks aren't just for chicks.

Arsty fartsy, popsy tartsy
Perfume from the dip dye cart, see
Colors spring from orange ade vat
Hang on racks and that is that.
