Transcript
In a knitting circle, the red-haired woman says, “Every year we put up with this. But if this keeps up I’m going to punch that upturned nose of hers.” The woman in the straw hat replies, “I don’t recommend that. But it would get the livestream numbers up.”
Image description
A red-haired woman sits with her arms crossed beside a dark-haired woman in a straw hat, who gestures toward a livestreaming phone as older women knit around them.
