tinsel_ninja Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Not really my thing, but on my blogging site, there's a group of users who have a punk rock knitting forum. They swap patterns and trade advice. http://www.livejournal.com/community/punk_knitters/ Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddolly Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Hullo, Now this might sound a bit stupid, but would you have to be a 'knitter' to start with? or could I just some along and learn? Sounds like a great idea and I would love to have a bash! I'm pretty new to Sheff and live in a house of boys and this sounds like a great idea to get out and meet some ladies!

I'm sure there would be plenty of folk there that would take pleasure in showing you; I would have thought it would be more of a social thing, so I guess folk would be friendly rather than knitting in competition!

JoyfulGrrl Posted April 3, 2005 Author Share Posted April 3, 2005 Hi Shana, Welcome to the forum!! Hurray, another knitter!! I know, I blush to admit the extent of my addiction too, and friends may mock, but . . . . where will they be when my gorgeous creations are atop the heads of the fashionistas, eh? Or maybe my nieces will just continue refusing to wear the strangely-shaped tea cosy hats I've managed to produce so far.... Well, I completely failed to get to the knitting group we found online - they meet on the last Friday of the month and I was sick, booooo! But they meet in the afternoon which might be difficult for some people anyway. An evening would be better for me. Maybe we could get together in a pub and sort out a regular meet-ups? I sense a Forum knitting group coming on!! Will post a date on this thread when I've got my act together - let the Knitterati unite!

shana Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Originally posted by JoyfulGrrl Hi Shana, hia joy, It would be good to start something up like this group, you can learn so much, especially for someone like me, who is still trying to understand what the whole knitting terms stand for in patterns. I will keep checking the site to see if any arrangements have been made for meetings. well nice chatting to you, hope you feel better soon take care shana:thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest poppins Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 If you ladies are interested in knitting for cancer, google CHEMO HATS, you get all the patterns you need. We knit hats and take them to the kids cancer hospital, they must have NO seams and NO wool, but theres plenty of nice fluffy yarn thats wool free.

Titian Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Hi joyfulgrrl, I like you started knitting recently, am 33, and live in Meersbrook. You can come round to mine as I have a few crafty type things I'm learning. Knitting being my favourite. Believe it or not I started it due to my degree requiring this type of thing. If you want to get together PM me hun. hey, anyway knitting is the new "binge drinking"!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
