Toss a Skein To Your Knitter

When this humble niece

Graced a ride along

With my Auntie Myrna

Along came this song


From when the Yarn Wolf sought

A ball of alpaca

To the store we shopped

So many colors I saw


They came after me

With circular needles

Tried to cast on

But I feigned the measles


While the devil’s store

Yarn arts tried to reach

And so cried the Knitter

She can’t be beat


Toss a skein to your Knitter

O’ Crafter of Plenty

O’ Crafter of Plenty

O’


Toss a skein to your Knitter

O’ Crafter of Plenty


At the end of the world

When the power's out

The boredom will break you

And fin'ly you shout


She made me sweaters

For this bad weather

And also these mittens

For our cold hands


She crocheted your hat

Here's one for your cat

She’s knit us all new booties

So let's give her that


Let's not be a fool

She knitted and she purled

Our presents are handmade

Now spin her some wool


Toss a skein to your Knitter

O’ Crafter of Plenty

O’ Crafter of Plenty

O’


Toss a skein to your Knitter

She'll knit us all new booties


Toss a skein to your Knitter

O’ Crafter of Plenty

O’ Crafter of Plenty

O’

She'll knit us all new booties


Toss a skein to your Knitter

O’ Crafter of Plenty

O’ Crafter of Plenty

O’


Toss a skein to your Knitter

She'll knit us all new booties



 

This came about from a writing prompt about the adventures of a crazy Aunt Myrna. Which led to parodying the greatest song on the interwebz. Here's the best cover of Toss a Coin To Your Witcher by Dan Vasc
