or is it Stitches and Sticks?? I can never remember….. at any rate……
Last night myself and 8 of my fellow knitters (well, 6 fellow knitters, one husband, and one sister) attended the second annual (?) Sticks and Stitches put on by the great folks at Interweave.
We chatted, knit, and watched the Colorado Avalanche’s overtime win over the New York Islanders. (No, I am absolutely not going to provide a link to the enemy’s website, if you wanna know, tough. You’ll just have to look it up yourself)
In truth some of us knit and chat more then watched hockey, but rest assured a good time was had by all. For me personally, it was the perfect combination of my favorite things: awesome friends, knitting and hockey. Oh, and of course: tasty adult beverages.
Oh, did I mention there were free goodies?
By the time we got there, the gals at the goodie desk said something akin to “Help yourselves to whatever” Are they nuts? Help yourself?? When there is free yarn on the table, what kind of nut says “Help yourself” to a group of knitters?? All told I have 3 balls of Bernat Satin, 4 balls Katia Mohair, and 3 mags.
In short:
friends + food + drink + knitting + hockey + freebies = good, no, awesome times!
