Yarn swapping
Who: Marcus Flint and Millicent Bulstrode
Where: Marcus' home
What: Millicent has been invited to share her yarn stash with 'Marcus' mum'. Hilarity most likely ensues. Possibly supremely unfunny for non-knitters.
When: Saturday afternoon.
Rating: G? (Unless you count the swearing.)
The idea of meeting Marcus Flint's mother was... well, a bit bewildering. Millicent had never before invited herself to meet somebody's parents, especially not somebody she only vaguely knew. Still, yarn was yarn and handspun was handspun. Throw in some kettle- and/or handdyed varieties and Millicent WAS THERE. No questions asked.
Possibly she'd gone a bit overboard with the stuff she'd brought. At least it felt that way when she was showed into an terrifyingly fancy house by a house elf. She had been there once or twice before, going to some of those freakish functions the purebloods seemed to like so much, and she had spent most of her life pretending that she didn't grow up in a two bedroom flat, sharing a room with her sister while her mum worked triple jobs. But this? This was beyond ridiculous. She was alone. In Flint's sitting room, carrying enough yarn to clothe a continent.
There was, however, one thing that always made things better. And with that Millicent pulled out the sock she was currently working on and got to work.
