Commissioned · The Vqwq Assembly (Northern Circuit)
One Cardigan. Four Committees.
Sister Amina has agreed, in writing, that the question of her cardigan may be considered. Consideration is not agreement, and she is careful to say so. The Northern Circuit refers all garment questions to the Standing Panel on Attire, which refers matters of outerwear to the Sub-Panel on Knitwear, which has not met since the flooding at the hall in Dewsbury. Your gift funds the hire of a room, the printing of an agenda, and the biscuits that make a quorum possible. The cardigan remains buttoned throughout. It will remain buttoned after. We ask only that the buttoning be properly minuted.
“I have not refused. I have simply not been asked in the correct order.”— Sister Amina Kholoud-Rees

This appeal was commissioned by a visitor and written on demand. It was not drawn up by us, it is not one of the 22 standing appeals, and it is every bit as unlikely to succeed.
