But, on Saturday I will driving the Trans Canada Highway from Armstrong (about an hour north of Kelowna in BC) back home to Vancouver. So there will not be that much knitting done in public. Unless I get stuck behind a rock slide clearing crew like on Wednesday when driving to Armstrong from Calgary and get stopped for half an hour. I managed to whip out my knitting while waiting. The people in the cars behind me who had gotten out to stretch their legs looked at me quite oddly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-59442095817075147352008-06-12T22:45:00.000-04:002008-06-12T22:45:00.000-04:00I plan on knitting in public at our local St. Jaco...I plan on knitting in public at our local St. Jacobs' market !<BR/><BR/>Lelahwhoknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13416026842021634316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-57488647161413534742008-06-12T22:14:00.000-04:002008-06-12T22:14:00.000-04:00I knit all the time in public - inspired by the ya...I knit all the time in public - inspired by the yarn harlot :)<BR/>I have knit on the beach, at the pool, on the bus, at the coffee shop, at conferences, and always get lots of compliments.

Port Moody (and area) knitters are meeting at our local rec center to sit in the sun (we hope; it's been cold, grey and rainy here forever!) and knit. Many of us are Ravelry friends who have never before met in public. It will be tons of fun! Hope you guys enjoy your day too!<BR/>Tamara Grand aka 'fitknitchick' on RavleryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-20432868024337748532008-06-12T15:03:00.000-04:002008-06-12T15:03:00.000-04:00Going to the park with my 1 year old daughter and ...Going to the park with my 1 year old daughter and going to be knitting at the park.

So my plan is to knit in public at ringside while I watch the other dogs being judged. I usually do knit ringside so it won't be a big deal. Sometimes I spin fur from my shelties while at dog shows and that gets some interest. Last summer I taught my sister to knit so she also sits ringside with her knitting. Another exhibitor told us she was glad to see us knitting as she would like to bring her knitting to shows but was afraid that people would think she was weird. Maybe we'll eventually spawn a dog show knitting group!<BR/><BR/>I knit in public all the time and have found it to be a great conversation starter. Seniors, especially men, tell me about their mothers knitting on "all those needles" and sometimes I've had a chance to teach others to knit while waiting for appointments.<BR/><BR/>Susan ZivecSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14910238896695633752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-55682284694729690572008-06-12T14:14:00.000-04:002008-06-12T14:14:00.000-04:00I will probably join the group from The Purple Pur...I will probably join the group from The Purple Purl in Toronto who are going to knit in a nearby park.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-39815530704531483112008-06-12T13:38:00.000-04:002008-06-12T13:38:00.000-04:00hm well i don't have any real plans yet except to ...hm well i don't have any real plans yet except to knit in public. maybe i'll invite some friends out to the park or beach to knit with me. hopefully i'll see other knitters out and about, too!<BR/><BR/>thanks for the awesome discount!fishgirl182https://www.blogger.com/profile/17436761943098919228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-9149669845623817912008-06-12T13:16:00.000-04:002008-06-12T13:16:00.000-04:00I plan to knit near High Rock Spring next to our S...I plan to knit near High Rock Spring next to our Saturday Farmer's Market with a bunch of fellow knitters who are going to bring bag lunches. <BR/><BR/>It's one of the natural springs here where I live in Saratoga Springs, NY.Cristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00703718496255462897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-64230804583919094852008-06-12T13:09:00.000-04:002008-06-12T13:09:00.000-04:00I'll be knitting on the beach... weather permittin...I'll be knitting on the beach... weather permitting!<BR/><BR/>Angela GruwellAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-68732484014805169392008-06-12T12:58:00.000-04:002008-06-12T12:58:00.000-04:00I would like to take my knitting over to the coffe...I would like to take my knitting over to the coffee shop and sit outside to knit if the weather is nice.<BR/>LindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26576592.post-77615842404339821782008-06-12T12:37:00.000-04:002008-06-12T12:37:00.000-04:00I wish I were close enough to join you.
