Stitch n' Bitch Day UK

Yesterday was the first UK Stitch n' Bitch Day & it rocked!

Rain, Sarah & I caught a horribly early train from Bristol & made our way across to the venue to find lots & lots of lovely, happy knitters....

There was Debbie Stoller talking to Rain - just 2 degrees of separation!

We listened to Jane Waller talk about this book & although she has given the patterns all in wool, I think loads of them are lovely & could easily be substituted for more modern, soft yarns.

It was a great day & fabulous to see so many people knitting & chatting about knitting - more please next year & even better, a Bristol S n' B Day - watch this space!!

Lazy Blogging - Kitty Cats

Just look at these gorgeous cats - how cute can they be? Their names are Alan (all black) & Miss Millie (black & white), they're brother & sister & I can't imagine not having them. Yeah - I know, this is absolutely the laziest blogging!

PS In the Shadow of the Moon was brilliant - really interesting & the astronauts seemed very humbled by their experiences. Go & see it when you get a chance.

PPS The I Knit event was FAB! Loads of knitting & chatting with a lovely atmosphere, I hope there's more to follow - pictures to follow.

Spilt time

I'm in two minds as to how to write my blog - do I talk about things I've done? Or do I talk about things I'm going to do? Or do I just blog away in both the past, present or future & let you decipher it?

Who knows?

Anyway, this weekend is fairly busy, which is quite unusual as I like to take it easy at the weekends & find time to play on Xbox Live. But we're off to the Watershed tonight to see In The Shadow Of The Moon, which I think will be great on the bog screen.

And then tomorrow I'm off to London with some of the Knit Chicks to see Amy Stoller! I am very excited about this as I don't think she comes to the UK often. We're going to the I Knit event, so more about that on Sunday as I'll be back late tomorrow - don't worry I'm sure I'll blog something to stay up to date with NaNoBloMo!!

And then on Sunday, 30 Days of Night is calling - Josh Hartlett fighting vampires - how can it get any better!! And shopping for a wedding outfit & looking at new kitchens - phew, what a weekend.
