First Austin Knitting Meet-up

Today I attended the first gathering of a newly formed Austin Knitting meet-up group. It was held at Austin Java Cafe , also a first for me. We had a great turn-out of maybe 12 or 13. The atmosphere was nice, and I finally got the chance to meet fellow blogger "Julia." It was great seeing her after a year or so of internet communication. What a blast! Actually, she was the only one I 'knew', if you can call it that. We had a diverse group of gals, some beginners, some veterans, and of course I was the only one crocheting! As you know, I'm on shrug #3, and it's going slow because I'm in the middle of preparing for my son's high school graduation and party. But I remembered to bring my camera and here a few shots; the first one is of me and Julia.
