The Bookish Girl

Ba-Ba-Ba-Baaa-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Baaaaa

It seems that the Daisy Cardi got her man (or woman…I haven’t the guts to check the sex of the cargo pants…)

(cue the music for Happy Together by The Turtles)

Imagine me


and you,


I do
I think about you day and night, it’s only right
To think about the girl you love and hold her tight


So happy together

If I should call you up, invest a dime
And you say you belong to me and ease my mind
Imagine how the world could be, so very fine
So happy together

I can’t see me lovin’ nobody but you


For all my life
When you’re with me, baby the skies’ll be blue
For all my life

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be


The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

I can’t see me lovin’ nobody but you

For all my life
When you’re with me, baby the skies’ll be blue
For all my life


Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

Ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba

Ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together


So happy together
How is the weather
So happy together
We’re happy together
So happy together
Happy together
So happy together
So happy together (ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba)

Cargo Pants:

Pattern: Cargo Pants from Knitty by Brynne Sutton

Yarn: Rowan All Seasons Cotton

Mods to pattern: None. Although if I knit these again I would pick up stitches for the pocket rather than knit it separately. I would also make it a functioning pocket. Non-functioning pockets remind me of dickie’s and well, that is NEVER a good thing.

    As for dickies, at least we did not live in times of hard plastic ones, as noted on Wikipedia…

    Oh, cute cute cute! You did a great job, what an adorable outfit! For some reason those patterns didn’t do much for til I saw your post. Now I want to do them too! I’m going to try that new Knitpicks Shine Worsted, I think. Wish me luck!

    What kind of evil genius are you, to make the diet coke come out of my nose this fine morning?

    I’d like to have been there for the genesis of this inspired musical/knitwear pairing.

    Was there liquor involved?

  16. Steph says:

    I read through and sang along with the entire song at my desk. You put in the correct number of ba-ba-bas.

    Nice touch.

    The pants are adorable. what a great outfit!

    oh god, i’m going to have that song in my head all day now!! but it’s a good song, and it will be accompanied by cute pictures of sheep, so that’s okay.

    i LOVE the cargo pants and i think my nephew needs a pair right now.

    i concur!! SO freaking adorable…. Altho, i am not botherd by non functioning pockets on baby clothes. I always wondered what exactly my kids were supposed to do with pockets, when they couldn’t even sit up??

    you and me. we have a connection. an hour or so ago as I was typing up my post, I TOTALLY had that song in my head and was toying with posting the lyrics in some kind of modified way…but ended up not having the brain power to do so. Imagine my surprise when I got to check my bloglines and found you had already done it!! crazy.

    love the daisy!
