Lettuce Knit

I’m finally trying to catch the blog up on my Toronto adventures. On Wednesday Amy picked me up from the train station and took me to dinner in the Kensington Markets from where we walked around the corner to the Lettuce Knit knitting night. It’s a pretty little store but they managed to squeeze a lot of people in, including several knitting celebrities, plus there was cake and beer. We had fun.

Elijah  and Otto found lots of things to play in.

Elijah found a great place to rest, but Otto was a little nervous…

They found people to play with too, they liked Denny but I think they liked her birthday cake more!

And they met Amy who I’ve been staying with. I got to see where knitty’s made + raid the knitty review stash!

And Laura, who I’m staying with from today. It’s raining and we’re going to a party later so we baked. Lots.

Well Otto and Elijah are certainly getting an eyeful of the world (with a heavy emphasis on yarn related locales) and at such a young age!!
Looks like you’re having a brilliant time…
….How about a wee self-portrait though…..??

It looks like you had so much fun! I’m still a bit nervous of knitting groups - silly, I know!

Darn - I was too busy to go to knit night last week. So sorry I missed you! Glad you had a good time with all the L.K. knitters!

Hi ysolda,
Looks like you’re having a great time in Canada. I was just in your home town last week. Edinburgh that is. How beautiful. You’re very lucky to have that gorgeous place on your doorstep.
