  1. 🧶 Today is World Wide Knit in Public Day 🌍, a reminder that preservation is not passive. It's made stitch by stitch.

    Check out Mlle. Riego de la Branchardière’s THE KNITTING BOOK (1848), part of our Victorian Knitting Manuals collection 👉 archive.org/details/krl0040291

  3. It's Worldwide Knit in Public Day today, and honestly I just can't be bothered.

    There are no official groups anywhere near us (one of these years I will organise one myself I swear!) so my plan was to take my knitting bag and maybe a small picnic and just go sit in a nearby park and see if anyone came over to chat.

    But after the unexpected dentistry this week, and looking at the generally damp and chilly forecast...yeah I'll skip this one.

    To anyone taking part this year, I hope you have a great time and the rain holds off just long enough!

    Here's a pic of my haul from last week's #GreatBritishYarnCrawl instead, which I'm pretty sure I forgot to post until now 😅

  4. Had an excessively nice bike ride and picnic brunch in a beautiful rose garden with a couple friends. Knit a lot, peoplewatched a lot, talked about all kinds of things. Beautiful overcast 70F and breezy, all day. Love it. Hope we get to do it again soon. #knitting #wwkipday

  5. Heute ist "Weltweiter Tag des Strickens in der Öffentlichkeit" (=World Wide Knit in Public Day). Gut, für mich ist da nicht wirklich ein Unterschied zu den meisten Samstagen ;)

  6. Nächster Samstag - world wide knit in public day

    Wo sind Aktionen in Europa - Deutschland taucht da nicht wirklich auf. Ich bin an dem Tag in Niederbayern, da wird wohl definitiv nix sein.

    Aber wenn ihr noch von Veranstaltungen wisst - lasst uns sammeln.

  7. World Wide Knit in Public Day also in #europe next weekend:, June 10th 2023:

    "#WWKIPDAY is unique, in that it’s the largest knitter run event in the world. Each local event is put together by a volunteer or a group of volunteers. They each organize an event because they want to, not because they have to."
