Oh my, this is a classic:
"And I will go and see about dinner, Reginald," remarks
Mrs. Owenson, settling her cap with a pleased simper at herself
in the glass, "if you can spare me."
"Spare you! What the devil good are you to any one
I should like to know! sitting there with your eternal knitting----"
"Not knitting, Reginald, love," remonstrates Mrs. Owenson,
"knitting's old-fashioned. Tatting."
It's from "One Night's Mystery" by May Agnes Fleming, a 19c Canadian
author.
