Ooo… I’d actually like to go to this… WWKiP day…. World Wide Knit in Public Day.
However, I live in Sligo, not Dublin… and um.. I don’t knit. I try to knit! I really do. I could to a “knit looking” crochet stitch maybe? That could pass, right?
Knittingneels suggests making one up in your own locality if you don’t want to go to Dublin. I just don’t know if Sligo really has that critical mass. I’d be down in Shoots all by my elf with yarn in my hand, and Niall glaring at me.
I have been looking at lists of bloggers in Ireland; like this one at Globe Blogs: Ireland… I wish you could sub-search that just for “craft blogs”. Alas. I’m amassing quite a list of craft blogs in ireland though (at my delicious links).
suppose you lived in dublin, you could still go. knitters don’t care if you crochet. the good knitters, anyway. i know sometimes it sounds as if it’s like the beatles and the stones.
join ravelry. you can then find all the knitting and crocheting blogs in … anywhere, and look for the specifically irish.
I had my own WWKIP today at Glencar waterfall – you could have joined me. I was in the Crafter’s Basket first
