You might be a redneck?

You might be a redneck if your wife fixes the torn, worn drivers seat in your 2500 Diesel pickup with fabric glue and a patch.
Yep, Tom’s a redneck. Last week he said that his seat cover was coming apart would I look at it? Why he asked me I’ll never understand. So I walked out and check his seat (the car, not his bottom). It was worn on the left side of the driver seat, next to the door. My suggestion to him was to get a seat cover. He’s remark “can’t you fix it?”.
Thinking I’ll teach him a lesson, fix it I did. Fabric glue, blanket ribbon and black nylon thread did the trick. When I finished, Tom took one look and said “guess I’d better order seat covers”. Gee, isn’t that what I said? My remark “I could have used duck tape”.
This just proves that men who drive big trucks should not ask wife to fix the seat cover, unless they want to be called a “redneck”.
On the knitting front:
I finished the socks and started a baby sweater set for a co-worker's new grandson. Photos to follow.
