I used to watch her knitting stockings of all sizes with silent curiosity; but one day I asked who a tiny pair of scarlet ones was for. "Mrs. Larkum's baby. The poor things are in desperate trouble," she replied. "But do you knit for other folks?" "Yes, fur some. Them I jest finished is fur one of the Chisties' down the lane. Any size from one to ten fits there." "Are they able to pay you?"
