Travelling Diver

Measurements

To fit one average semi-cellulitic lower half.

Tension

Six stitches to every inch. Bacardi and Coke taken every half hour, or as required.

To make

With main colour, cast on enough stitches to circumnavigate waist. Stop. Have a rest, pace yourself, breathe slowly and deeply. Knit one, purl one until 'Eastenders' has finished. Eat one Scotch egg and a banana. Allow to digest. Knit some more knits and purl some more purls. Thread shirring elastic through ankle holes and sit in the bath to shrink-fit. Remember, comfort is your number one priority. Enjoy!
