Voting Results Are In!

Oh boy, you guys are a riot.

Knitters beware.  After lots of voting (some of y'all voted more than once, but hey that's cool), a pattern just barely squeaked into the lead. 

Out of six votes total, Vlad got three votes.  In fact, only one person, Bonitinha, expressed her concern for my mental well being.  Ahem.  I am going to presume that you are encouraging my growth as a knitter, O Blogosphere, rather than planning my demise.  This is going to be verrrrry interesting. 

I have some more pictures to post of my beloved Color Affection, since my friend DJ was able to photograph it on me, rather than me photograph it laying limply on some towels.



No, I do not have a tidy home.  One of those reasons for the untidiness is in the second photograph!

Also a friendly reminder to everyone out there that this week is World Wide Knit In Public Week!  Let's get out there and scare those non-knitters with our dashing, flashing needles, our stitches, our projects, and maybe win some over to the dark side!  Please feel free to snap some pics and send them to me (ellarine23ATyahooDOTcom, replace the AT with @ and the DOT with .) and I'll post them on the blog next week.  Major bragging rights go to the clever knitter who submits a photo showing knitting in an unusual place (don't get too crazy, guys--knitting and driving do not mix).  I can't wait to see what the week brings!  See you soon!

WORLD WIDE KNIT IN PUBLIC DAY

This Month brings us the annual World Wide Knit In Public Day!

 

 

Be sure to do your part and get knitting out there to be talked about and seen by all!

You can get together your own group and go to your favorite hangout, or join an organized group for a bigger event, but most importantly- get out there and have fun spreading fiber-arts!

 

The Ol' North State Knitting Guild Is hosting a big get together to celebrate.

Here's the details:

Location: Lake Crabtree Park, Morrisville.

Time: 11am - 4pm

Date: June 13, 2009

How to get there:

1400 Aviation Parkway, I-40, exit 285, ‘Beech’ shelter

Please bring: Yarn, of course! There are picnic tables, a kids playground and grills available on site. We are right at the lake if you want to swim. There will be vendors, door prizes, charity displays, and the opportunity to work on the World’s Longest Scarf in support of Keep the Fleece, a celebration of the International Year of Natural Fibres. Mostly - come knit and have fun with people who understand stash! Contact robin, rmringo@gmail.com. As this is an all inclusive event, please feel free to bring your crochet, nalbinding, spindle or wheel.

The backup plan is: The Beech shelter is completely covered.
