Worldwide Knit in Public Day

yeah - I'm a bit slow in posting this but have lost my access at work so resorted to the slow home internet - you will probably notice a difference in the posts from now on! 

A great day as reported by a whole load of Auckland bloggers and ravelry-ites. I was amazed how many people turned up on the day - and knitting just fabulous stuff.


I spent my time chatting with Catherynne and Sarah and meeting a few other knitters. And getting some more of the DK Smoothie cardi done (which, BTW,  I have frogged the left front for the 2nd time two nights ago!!! grrrrr)

I hadn't been in the new Atrium entrance to the Auckland Museum - what an amazing job they have done with the wooden bulb (I don't know what the appropriate name for it is - onion bulb, beehive??).
The afternoon made us realise just how many knitters are out there, and how cool it was doing stuff together. So we decided to make our irregular wino nights regular and sent a big invite out on Ravelry - Auckland Central SnB, first Tuesday of each month at the  Northern Steamship.

yah for knitting, yah for yarn. Right back to that left front ....

Bummer about the work access, AND about the refrogging, but YAY for the Irregular Winos! Looking forward to it...
