Toy Boy?


I used to be a scarf,
So very long and thin.
I warmed a chilly neck
And sometimes a chin.


One day she made me shrink,
Then said 'I'll make you cute'.
Now I'm just a toy boy,
In a fair isle suit!


To chop or not?

Would you swap a woolly scarf for a toy boy?...

or five toy boys?... and a few rabbit brooches?

Crafty ways make woolly dilemmas.

    I can't compete with your poem today. Yes! I would swap a woolly scarf for a woolly toy boy! I love the look of wool but can't stand the itchiness around my neck. Would much rather look at it than wear it!!! :-) x
