"When I see them knit," Terry said, "I can almost call them feminine." "That doesn't prove anything," Jeff promptly replied. "Scotch shepherds knit always knitting." "When we get out " Terry stretched himself and looked at the far peaks, "when we get out of this and get to where the real women are the mothers, and the girls " "Well, what'll we do then?"
