Friday Night Knitting Club
First - let's give props to our favorite celebrity knitter, Julia Roberts...... because she just signed on to star in a movie called Friday Night Knitting Club! (Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it will be out until 2008, but just think of the possibilities! We could swarm every movie theater in the country and cover it with hand-knitted goodness! People should never be cold in movie theatres again!)
And now for some more local news: Simply Fibers is hosting a Knit-In this Friday from 6-10pm. I won't be able to stay for very long, because I'm going to run a 5K at Silver Dollar City ion Friday with all the Christmas lights. (I know, it's too early for Christmas, but I couldn't pass it up, it sounds like a really cool race.)
The Lizard Ridge squares are coming along nicely! I finished one, and I have almost finished reknitting the one I messed up the first time around. Noro rocks.

Let's not celebrate until we know about the quality of the movie...Of course, I do love the idea of having knit-ins at theaters. I bet alot of people coming out from a movie like that would be interested in learning to knit.
Noro does indeed rock. I finished my third LR square yesturday and can probably get one more out of the yarn.

There will definitely be a surge in the knitting population when this movie comes out.

I heard that about Julia and it sounds like a cute story. Based on a book. Hopefully it will be good.
