Hey ladies (and possibly gentlemen), I think it's time to start a new thread about the lovely little knitting group that's so new it doesn't even have a catchy name yet!
*Thursday
*7 PM
*Uptown Espresso, home of the "velvet foam" and Black Sabbath on the radio.
*Bring: Your "A" game and crafting goodies
Sound good?!

I actually names it without telling you guys. How lame of me. I started a group for it on Ravelry. We are the West Seattle Needlers. What say yous?
I like it because it gives love to our hood and invites non knitters to join, also. Plus their is the double meaning of "needler". Heh.
Sure; I don't use any needles, but maybe my pins will count? We don't yet have any crocheters or tatters, neither of whom uses needles--but I hope they'd not feel excluded by a name technicality!
I checked the forums today just for news about this, so count me in!

ellenater- if it were kiddo singular, I would...but it is kiddos X 4.

Oh, I love that! Pins and Needles! That's good. West Seattle Pins and Needlers? Love it!!
Ahhh, I wish i had a portable DVD player for the kiddos. We could get them set up with a nice Americano and an ALmodovar flick. ;)

Ya Aim you should come. It's really fun. Last night Kim came. It's always nice to meet new people and knitters are the best kinda' people. The gossip doesn't hurt either. ;)
Thanks TR!

ellenater - I tried to join ravelry - still waiting on the official invite email. :)
I totally got called out as a knitting addict yesterday by the ladies at Seattle Yarn.
One of these Thursdays will work for me again!

Yay!
also, love those ladies at Seattle Yarn. They crack me up every visit. And they have the best yarn...
ravelry has so many free patterns that are great! You'll love it!!
Wow! My name is mentioned in post #18!! I had to stop going to the Knit Night for a while because I was working on the election...opening absentee ballots! It was a lot of fun but took up a lot of time (mostly commuting to Renton!)
Anyway, after the holidays things get back to "normal" so I hope to be back soon!

Someday I'll be there and someday you-all will teach me to cast on and then I'll have Something Other Than Scarves(tm) to wear. Our granddaughter called to make sure I got more knitting stuff for Hanukkah. She's 8 and realy doesn't keep secrets well. :-)

Kim, if you want to be on the email list, post here or send it to me in a personal message.
We''ll prolly meet at Uptown next week barring any huge snowstorms. I'll post for sure before. After next week, we'll go back to regular Thursdays.
Cheers!
