Tonight, I got to share needles.

[reynardo]

and finally met the wonderful folk that make up sydneygothsnb. I got to feel the terrible terrible temptation that is the Harmony Interchangeable Needle Set, and to agree that any partner who wants a jumper knitted in 4 ply can damn well knit it themselves. There was discussion about what to do with 20 beautiful crocheted lace scarves in Australia (one suggestion - put 10 of the roughly-same-size side by side and make a bedspread out of them) and what makes a good S&B location. (Good coffee and food, light, not too much noise so you can talk, space to sit and do your project, and no smoke.)

It only took me 3 years to get there, too :-)

"The username sydneygothicsnb is not currently registered." Typo in there?

You're absolutely right. It should be sydneygothsnb. Judean People's Front and all.

We haven't had a slatch meeting in months. Next time you're in Melbourne and you have time, it would be an excellent motivator for me to organise a slatch, if you're interested.

Hi, l was going to say l'd love to attend too, but then read your details on the slatch site (how do you get it to put in a live link here?) and realised it was invitation only.. oops sorry.

Worry not. As a friend of reynardo you would be very welcome. We are not specifically a goth group, but we are goth-friendly.

The live link looks like this - [lj comm="slatch"] - but with angle brackets instead of square brackets.
