SSNB Knitter's Digest 9/8/07

It was hard to figure out what was going on at SSNB last night. The atmosphere was rather bar like. I think we were louder than the Hyde Park parrots. For a while, an 18 month old was shouting MEEYAH at the top of his lungs as well. [Please take a moment to join us for a public service announcement. While most of us like kids, some of us actually don't, and nobody likes a loud kid. If your child is not knitting, then perhaps they should stay home. Thank you, sorry to make anyone upset by this.] The author only caught snippets of conversation every now and then so if anyone else wants to fill us in, please feel free to do so.

We had two new friends visit us from Ravelry. M was working on a little pouch using a double knit technique. E was making a Fair Isle baby hat. There had been some mention of hazing the new members. I guess we hazed ourselves by filling up on candy. People brought orange slices, jelly bellies, junior mints, butter finger crisps (mmm), and caramels.

T was practicing, L was finishing up a scarf, N was working on a feather and fan scarf, F was finishing up a hand warmer, M was working on socks, M had a baby blanket going, K was making itty bitty baby socks, N finished her vest, J brought her scarf back and S was felting. Please enjoy K's Fantine as our pic of the week. It's a lovely sweater both in looks and texture.

The early birds caught the SSNB knitter's tattoo fashion show. Who knows what parts were revealed to show off the body art? Speaking of which, some of us also congregated around the computers to look at L's naked camp photo. A Saturday night toga party with DJ was included with the price of admission.

See some of you at Yarn Con this Saturday. 'Til the next digest.
