  S N B

Last weekend I was informed, by a stranger on Ravelry, that there is a Stitch n Bitch every Sunday at a coffee shop near my home and was invited to join them. Although I have never attended one before, it is my understanding that an SnB is a group of knitters who, armed with needles and yarn, gather together for companionship and conversation. I am really looking forward to this. I don't know any other knitters in town and although I frequently knit in public (doctor's and dentist's waiting rooms, park benches, check out lines at Costco, etc) I have rarely seen anyone else doing the same. I should be finished my wool gloves before the SnB so I've decided to take along the supplies for a pair of hairy slippers. I can't start a big project as I'm expecting my yarn package for the Big Blue Shawl to arrive on Monday. This is exciting stuff for me and yes, I do lead a tranquil/boring life.

There was one of those groups here in Las Vegas for younger tattoo-sporting folks with lots of body piercing and fluorescent hair. It met in a biker bar. I always wondered if they would refuse entry to someone who looked normal.

I hope you meets lots of women there that you relate to. Will be looking forward to hearing about the group.

It might be fun! All women need a good b-h session with other women. Then you know that you aren't alone.

First thing you have to do in any group situation is identify the
#####(es), and remember that all the people are there for your entertainment and are providing material for future blogs! Enjoy...

Will enjoy hearing more about your knitting group. Ours is not very exciting, more into raising money for the hospital with our Craft Fair and Raffle.I also enjoyed your cartoons, and Yes I also predict your yarn will arrive on Monday.

Love the cartoons. Now I have to figure out how to forward them to my knitting group (KnitWits). We meet once a month but our get togethers include a potluck lunch. I don't know if people come to knit or to eat. I went to Mum's knitting group one time and I have to say it wasn't as much fun as mine, especially since her group doesn't include any food or beverages.

Enjoy yourself, Nitti. Pass along any good stories.

I think you'll have a lot of fun and lots of good stuff to blog about on Greasy. Tell us all about it.
