Where do you like to indulge in your craft? Is your favourite arm chair your little knitting cubby area, or do you prefer to ‘knit in public’? Do you liek to crochet in the great outdoors, perhaps, or knit in the bath, or at the pub? TAGGING CODE: knitcroblo5
I would knit it here or there. I would knit it in a house, I would knit it with a mouse. I would knit it in a box, I would knit it with a fox. Oh, wait that is not knitting, that is green eggs and ham....
Actually, I feel naked without a project. My projects are weirdly well-travelled, since I often take them places and never take them out of the bag... Like knitting project security blankets. Work has seen many a project come and go, despite the fact that they won't let me knit at my desk.... Silly people! Right now I would have to say that it depends on what project has my attention at the moment where it is going for knitting. Remember this setup? (Don't FANTASTIC pictures deserve a second showing??)The Aeolian, for example, is ONLY being knit in the recliner in the den. Too stinking complicated to pack up and go, not to mention what a disaster I could make of this pattern if I got even slightly distracted! I am making terrific progress on this one since this is my week to be tethered to the laptop to work from home in the evenings....
Also on the needles, to cover all whims and locations, I have Passiflora which is just easy and chunky enough that I can work on it anywhere. I think I could walk and knit this at the same time, which comes as a blessed break from the teeny-tiny bead-laden lace work.... Not that it has seen any travel time yet, but I WOULD take this one to Barnes and Noble or Starbucks for coffee, knit anywhere that I might sit and chat.....
Additionally, I have a ziplock bag full of sock just waiting to go to the beach tomorrow. (See, I am a dreamer, I hold on to the dream! I WILL go to the beach....) I figure that the yarn is not all thick and sweaty and I don't care overmuch if I get sand in it.
So, I guess the question is more Where WON'T I knit????

I love knitting socks at the beach too. I think it should be compulsory. Sometimes you just need to be alone to knit the complicated patterns.
I am such a home knitter. I always am impressed how other knitters can knit just anywhere.
