Good book, bad knitting needle

I love the Mma Ramawatse No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series.  This is the latest installment just out.  I was the first to read it from the library.  That doesn't happen often with a library book.  Just thought I'd share this quote.

"Yes, it was there - the large scratch on the metal dashboard that Puso as a small boy had made with a knitting needle." The Saturday Big Tent Wedding Party by Alexander McCall Smith pg. 141
