Dead Camera

I was planning to post new photos of my WIPs (shawl and Peter's sweater), but discovered that the batteries in my camera need to be recharged. Oh well. I guess they wouldn't be the most exciting photos anyway.

Tonight I'm going to my very first SnB. I have no idea what to expect. Hopefully, the members will be welcoming to someone new. I heard about this group from Monkee, so I hope I'll have a chance to meet her there! Interestingly, just last week I saw a feature on the local news about the popularity of what they called "stitching groups." The segment featured the central Houston SnB (the one that meets on West Gray). I laughed when they showed the cover of Stitch 'N Bitch and placed a big STAR over the "B" in Bitch. While watching the segment, I was surprised to see that most of the people were using straight needles. I thought that most people used circulars these days. Maybe my perception is skewed because I have never used straight needles.
