World Wide Knit in Public

This week sees an international event that you might blink and miss, it's World Wide Knit in Public Day/week, with events happening all around the world to show that there are knitters and crocheters too, it used to be a day but now it's from a Saturday to a Saturday (this year the 9th to 17th June) to accomodate as many people as possible.  The site lists man of the events happening, with several of them happening in Dublin.  The biggest will be (hopefully, weather permitting) in Stephen's Green Saturday 16th from about 2pm at the Playground in the Green (or the balcony in Powerscourt if it's raining) Coincidentally it's Bloomsday, and believe it or not, there is a mention of Knitting in Molly Blooms Soliliquy

If you can't manage to get to any of these events, don't forget that Dublin City Public Libraries host a number of regular knitting meetups at a variety of times in Donaghmede, Inchicore, Raheny (on their summer break at the moment) and Walkinstown.  If you follow the link you can email or phone those branches for further information.

Knitting meetups can be great fun.  If none of the ones in the libraries suit you check out Dublin Knit Collective who keeps an eye on all the meetups around Dublin if you know any more feel free to tell her or us and we'll make sure they're included.
