Since there are no knitting groups in Boro Park, I would like to start one. If there is interest, we could then find a location and a time to meet.
November 10, 2011 2:50 am at 2:50 am #827162Does one have to know how to knit to join this club?
November 10, 2011 5:25 am at 5:25 am #827163i am hereMemberI would love to learn how to knit. A girl in camp once showed me how and i did some, i loved it! It was some time ago and i do not remember anything about it so i would love to relearn it all again (it was not that much anyway) This would be a gr8 opportunity for me to learn a new skill and something that i think that i would enjoy.
November 10, 2011 4:59 pm at 4:59 pm #827164knitchickMemberI am not an extremely experienced knitter. I need help myself. But I am able to teach someone how to knit and purl. There is a huge amount of tutorial videos on the computer on You Tube. That’s where I go to if I have a problem or I go to the knitting store where I usually purchase my yarn. I would like to have join us an experienced knitter who would be able to help us. I have no problem teaching to knit and purl. I think we need a couple more people to join and then we must find a location. I don’t have room in my apt but maybe we could go from your apt to another’s apt each week. That’s only an idea. If any of you have ideas, please let me know.
November 10, 2011 10:47 pm at 10:47 pm #827165knitchickMemberYou do not have to know how to knit. If you crochet that is fine too.
November 11, 2011 2:44 pm at 2:44 pm #827166Shticky GuyParticipantI think we should hold the knitting club right here in the coffee room. What better place can there be to learn how to organise threads, to spin yarns, to create phishing lines etc etc
November 11, 2011 4:45 pm at 4:45 pm #827167BaalHaboozeParticipantLOL, Shticky Guy! good one.
may I request from you ladies to knit me a colorful baggie for my paper clip and bottle cap collections. It shouldn’t be larger than 106’x 302′. thank you so much.

November 11, 2011 5:44 pm at 5:44 pm #827169am yisrael chaiParticipantfunny, Shticky!
The cr is also a great place for purls of wisdom, contrasting opinions, and, you should know, leaving us in stitches…
November 11, 2011 5:49 pm at 5:49 pm #827170Fake-teenMemberFeel free to reply to this thread if you’re in Boro park even if you don’t knit…who else lives in boro park?
Next week is the tehillim group in Midwood thread.
November 13, 2011 2:46 am at 2:46 am #827171am yisrael chaiParticipantoh, and the most Colorful Threads, considering Pba’s Motzei Shabbos Purls of wisdom….
November 13, 2011 12:45 pm at 12:45 pm #827172Shticky GuyParticipantThanx baalhabooze and i love coffe & Lol ayc! Its good to see that, not for the first time, our thoughts are ‘intertwined’…
November 13, 2011 4:35 pm at 4:35 pm #827173To make fun of someone trying to start something purposeful and is serious is not really nice!
November 16, 2011 8:58 pm at 8:58 pm #827174Shticky GuyParticipantKnitchick: ms critique (who MAY always know the answers correctly but may also not) accused me of making fun of you when you are trying to start something purposeful. So let me ask you; did you feel made fun of? This was far from my intentions and I’m sure that you didnt feel this way. I was just trying to be Shticky!
Has anything come of your great idea? Let us know. I’m dyeing to find out if anything is looming on the horizon re your club. I know that I am being a bit of a sew and sew for asking, but its been needleing me for the past few days so I thought I wont be a knitwit but will ask you if you think your club could really have a point in 2011? Or will people just say “Oh, I’d rather be strung into the web of online shopping and buy my own darn sweater”?
November 16, 2011 10:20 pm at 10:20 pm #827175Boro Park GirlMemberCount me out!!!
I don’t have the patience to sit and knit.( I don’t really like to sit and do anything for too long.)
November 17, 2011 9:12 pm at 9:12 pm #827176Shticky GuyParticipantI don’t really like to sit and do anything for too long
Yeah, we noticed. Is that why we dont see you here very often any more? 🙁
November 17, 2011 9:31 pm at 9:31 pm #827177Cheer up shticky!! 🙂
November 18, 2011 12:58 am at 12:58 am #827178Shticky GuyParticipantJust send some ice cream my way. That’ll cheer me up for sure! Ask Jothar for my mailing address ☺
November 18, 2011 2:21 am at 2:21 am #827179Boro Park GirlMemberHey shtick! nice to hear that you realized I was gone. I try to stop by as often as I can to say Hi but not too often cuz im b’h very busy.
See ya another time!
November 18, 2011 3:56 am at 3:56 am #827180BubbyLaParticipantThere is a great crocheting class given by (I think her name is) Ruchi Gross in Flatbush.
You could probably find her number in the Yiddisher phone book.
My neighboors friend went on a whim and enjoyed it.
