He has forgotten that he is holding it. He is in a state of shock and does not fully understand what he is doing.

How does lady macbeth cover for macbeth at the banquet?
Lady Macbeth is the wife of the title character, Macbeth, a Scottish nobleman.
The Doctor and Gentlewoman watch Lady Macbeth sleepwalk. She incessantly rubs her hands together, trying to wash off imaginary spots of blood. The blood represents her guilt that she is unable to shake off.
Lady Macbeth returns the bloody daggers (two of them) to the grooms in Duncan's chamber. Macbeth cannot face doing it.
Macbeth was hiding a lot. He was hiding his fears and guilty feelings. He also was hiding what he was doing with Scotland and the why everyone was dieing from Lady Macbeth
The reaction between Lady Macbeth and Macbeth is initially very different after they kill Duncan. Lady Macbeth is enthusiastic but Macbeth regrets his actions.
Lady Macbeth
Lady Macbeth is often portrayed as a fourth witch.
After MacBeth receives the predictions from the witches he writes a letter to Lady MacBeth detailing the whole situation. He calls her his "dearest partner of greatness" and is very trusting of her. He is also subject to much influence from her since she is the one who later convinces MacBeth to kill the king, Duncan, when he is resolute on not doing anything of the sort.
