stitch, sf style

i'm happy to report that amy helped to launch the first gathering of stich in sf!


the energy was high, the food was good, the vibe was crafty. amy worked an intricate knitting pattern while teaching me how to use circular needles to knit a caplet (!). i'm VERY excited about my new skills. our male members both lamented their need to craft web designs on computers (both approached me on their own and apologized profusely), and both promised more tactile, less technology-infused projects at our next meeting. one particular project in the works is a man satch--chris debuted his impressive prototype and amy and i offered our thoughts on design and materials.


as you may note, i'm wearing an uber-cool apron that i love SO MUCH. maux, it's perfect. i wore it almost all day long--i considered wearing it to the deyoung museum earlier in the day. :) thank you.

so it looks like sf stitch will be on sunday nights and will be all male except for me. another guy was added to the group after enthusiastic members learned the power of stitch, so for our second gathering we number four!
