New Location: Trident Technical College

Last week we discussed possible options for other places to meet. We are soon outgrowing Atlanta Bread Company for a few reasons.

1. There are only 4 comfortable places to sit. In the case that more than 4 people show up, well some one is gonna go home with a sore bum. No one likes a sore bum, so this needs to be remedied.

2. There is a group of old guys that assemble near the same time we do but seem to get there earlier and snag all the comfy chairs. Some even demand that we move. Well I won't stand for that. They can take their boring NASCAR conversations and old man smell and shove it. Okay that was a little mean, but you get the picture.

So, after some brainstorming, we came up with the lobby of the new 920 Building at Trident Technical College in North Charleston. I am hoping this will end up being the place we meet regularly. There are nice couches and chairs and it is a pretty wide open space with not too much traffic and plenty of parking.

If you need directions, email me at chicksnsticks at gmail dot com

I'm spelling out the email address so I don't get even more spam.

First Post. Yay!!

I created this blog to have a forum for the members of the Charleston Chicks 'n Sticks knitting group that I founded.

I think in a few months I may discontinue the Meetup.com account as I see it becoming an expense I might not necessarily be able to continue to afford, but we'll see. For the time being we can use both the blog and the Meetup site as a means of communication.

Another reason I created this is to allow members a better way to document their knitting. I love looking at pictures of projects and hearing about the ups and downs of the process.

This is not intended to be a "knitting only" blog, so feel free to post about whatever. Just make sure to tag it (categorize) it properly so it makes it easier to archive.
