June is here which means shortly we can officially claim summertime AND spend as much time as possible outdoors. Summer is when folks spend the most time with friends and family. It’s the time to have fun on the beach, in the parks or the backyard and by fun of course I mean knit! Hahahahahahahaaaa I know you saw that coming.
This weekend was full to the top for me and I had a blast. I went to a concert on Friday (knit while my girlfriend drove) Saturday after cooking class ( couldn’t knit in the kitchen 😐 but you can call me Chef GG)
I had a family gathering as my great Aunt was in town and I hadn’t seen her in a bit. We ate, we laughed, I knit 👀 what?
Look y’all saw my favorite T-shirt and it’s says “if I’m sitting I’m knitting” and that is a FACT baby! Honestly it’s such a conversation starter. I can’t tell you how many folks sat down next to me and either said they knit or wanted to learn. I heard stories of being taught by grandmothers long gone or the favorite camp counselor. The presence of yarn generated such warm memories. I even got questions about my circular needles, so yes I knit everywhere I go, don’t you?
I am currently working on the footlooseandfancyfree poncho from Three Irish Girls. I grabbed the kit during the NJ Woolwalk from Do Ewe Knit? The kit comes with the DK weight yarn in four different shades, it graduates from darkest to lightest with some textured business in between 😋
Is there a place that you will NOT knit? Let’s discuss oh and Worldwide Knit in public day is June 13th and I will be in Bryant Park in NYC. Say hi if you will be out there
Knit on my fiber friends…knit on

I’ll knit just about everywhere I can. I also get looks and sometimes questions but I don’t usually mind them unless I’m working on something intricate. I’ve learned to leave those home as much as possible. Can’t wait for the WWKIP. I’ll see you there!
Woot woot!
I Knit and Crochet basically wherever I go.
Thank you Sis
I Love your Blog 🙂
See you understand me! Thanks for the visit
I don’t leave home without it. For real. How were the greens? 😀 Have a blessed week my friend.
You have a wonderful week as well!
Thank you Lovely Lady!
Gaye, If you’re awake, you’re knitting lol!! I will sometimes bring my crochet when I have to take my mom to the store and while she’s in there, I will sit in the car and crochet 🙂
You’ll be very close to me on June 13th Gaye, so maybe I’ll just jump on the train and head down to the City so I can finally see you, it’s been too long! I wonder if they will allow crocheters at the event????
I don’t see why not and yes we need to plan something! I miss you guys!
Great! What time does the event start? Do you have a link to the event info so I can check it out? Thanks 🙂
Look up world wide knit in public day. I think it’s 2:30 to 4:30 heck you may even find event up by you
Lol if I am awake you got that right!
I knit wherever I go. It has led to some wonderful conversations. It always seems to bring up fond memories for people.
Yes!! It’s such a feel good moment
I wish I could knit more places…Sometimes I feel rude pulling out my knitting while socializing, but I really want to knit anyway! Yikes.
Pull that knitting out! I do ALL the time. OR leave where they can see them they will ask and you will have to pull it out.
I need the same tee shirt ! Yarrrrrn !!
Hey Julie!!!
I knit almost everywhere; during meetings (unless they are <10 people and with VPs), in-services, long traffic lights. I do not knit during church service. : )
Look at you! small needles, again. Before you know it, you'll be knitting socks with size 1s. ha ha
Ok hey hey with the size 1 reference. No cursing allowed! Hahahahahahahaaaa
Wait did you say long traffics light? Hahahahahahaaaa I adore you!
I knit everywhere I can manage it. So far I have resisted the urge to knit while stuck in stop-and-go traffic on the freeway, but it is a close thing sometimes…
Lol!
Wherever I go, my knitting goes!
Amen!
