KNitting, Tea & Cookies

KNitting, Tea & Cookies or is it Tea & Cookies then KNitting.


Everybody tells me that they would love to knit but they don't have the time.
  I look at people's lives and I can see opportunity and time for knitting all over the place. 
 The time spent riding the bus each day?  That's a pair of socks over a month. 
Waiting in line?  Mittens.
Watching TV?  Buckets of wasted time that could be an exquisite lace shawl.

Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, Mediation's for Women Who Knit too Much
Stephanie was the guest speaker at knit east in St. Andrews, New Brunswick, and had everyone in stitches with her wicked sense of humor.  If you are a knitter then her comments have a ring of truth.

Now it is time for Tea & Cookies then KNitting
