The AntiCraft is for your darker side. Or for my family. With patterns like, Curse Your Boyfriend, Snowball’s Chance in Hell, Eternal Embrace and more!  I absolutely love them! I need Amber to work me up some charts for some more positive runes! ;) Check it out.

I met a fellow knitter on the streetcar on the way home from work last night. She was knitting something in the round (a sock maybe?) and we got chatting (as knitters KIP’ing usually do). She told me about an SNB with cocktails. Of course this peaked my interest…

Remember the TTC Knit-A-Long in October? This group is really doing it in style this time. This event on November 26 purports to be the swankiest knit out ever. The group is meeting at the Rosewater Supper Club. It’s a night of dressing up in grown-up clothes, wearing makeup, having your hair and nails done, heels!, combined with knitting and fancy eats! (Disclaimer: um, male knitters do not have to wear makeup and heels.)

The knitters will be situated in the Rose Wall Lounge (Scroll down to “Front Lounge”). It’s downright sumptuous, that is!

“…ideal for casual bar dining, pleasant conversation or just lounging to the regular piano and live entertainment provided by John Roby and his lively band of jazz musicians.” 

If you are interested, you need to RSVP as space is limited. More information is available at the TTC Knit-A-Long blog.

Favourite Quote of the Day:

As we were heading into the subway (fellow knitter and I)….

Fellow Knitter (FK): When did you start knitting?

Me: When I was 6.

FK: Wow. So how long have you been knitting then?

Me: 18 years.

Silence. Conversation in my head…

HUH? Is  that right? 18 + 6 = …….. HA HA HA HA HA

Me: What? Why did I say 18? That’s not true! It’s way more than 18. I guess I must think I look pretty good for having been a knitter for so long! Oh well. Close enough. And you looked like you believed me, so I guess I could have just left it at that.
