Thursday knitting group

I crashed a new knitting group today, and had a blast. It took them a little while to start talking to me, but it was fun once they did. I even got invited to their potluck next week! Aw, shucks. I like seeing what other people choose to knit, what kinds of yarn they like, and their taste in colors and textures. I find it especially educational when people have knitted things out of yarn that I have in my stash. I can see how it drapes and looks knitted up.

There was a fabulous pair of Koigu socks there, with a contrast ruffle, heel, and toe. Yummy! And lots of summer garments, think lacey patterns and cotton.

For the Eugene knitters, it is at the Strand, thursdays at 3:30. Not next thursday though. But most of the other ones. Bonus: Books without Borders carries Interweave Knits and Vogue Knitting, and Spin-Off. I didn't see the most recent Spin-Off on the shelf, but thank goodness I asked, it was sitting in a box waiting to be unpacked!

And a meme...
