HollyGolightly

BadDoggie
When's this gig start up again? I have a couple questions on technique.

woof.
Nicky
Technique??? When, or indeed, are you starting up again. It was a fun idea. My crochet needle and yarn are on the shelf waiting. I'll be delighted to give some tips on technique. Miaow.

Is this "Stitch n Bitch" ritual still going on? I would love to join in on the next event.

Anyone into quilting by any chance??
Mbangura

Hello Tex,
Just wanted to say I've been intending to turn up at the TwiBa to keep my support for your efforts in the pipelines, but it has been hard to get away right now. It's getting better and better at your place, if that is possible! (i.e. Stich 'n Bitch, BookSwap etc) and according to all the raves in Toytown the food is beyond excellent. Keep on truckin' lady, will turn up again, one of these days. Ciao
Plane Girl

Thanks...Jackie

I think it's every Sunday at 4pm at the Twisted Bavarian in the smoke-free back room. I can't make it this week, but I'll see you next week.

Stitch and Bitch today at 4 pm
More tea, Vicar?
Is this a good place to pick up chicks?

I can bring a good tea selection ...
Mbangura
yes.
Mbangura
Just a reminder, Stitch and Bitch tomorrow at 4

I guess if you like grumpy women bearing long pointy instruments of creation (or destruction), then go for it. tongue.gif
Nicky
Wouldn't you like us to knit you some bedsocks? Or, better still, I'll teach you to knit your own.

ignore this post
Sin
What post?
TexasTornado
Perhaps the smartest of our customer's are the men who come hang out at the bar on Sunday afternoons. They get to scarves knitted for them while drinking beer and the women who stitch & bitch are babes!
eurovol
Can a married guy get a scarf and just look at the babes? wink.gif
TexasTornado
Yes, but you must bring Ian along to flirt with the girls.
Sin
Eurovol, if you bring Ian along between 3 and 5, Eirik will also be in attendance wink.gif

Hi everyone,

I have a question along this topic. I need to buy a utensil but am not sure what it's called in English and German. It's for picking at stitches to undo them, or cut through them. (I need to undo a hem, and scissors are too fiddly for the small stitches).
I need to buy one after work today!
Thanks
UA
UrbanAngel
Thanks to Potterstreet for providing me with the term - seam ripper!

Here's a pic of one

Ta muchly,
UrbanAngel

PS Couldn't find the word in dict.leo.org but printed out the pic to show if I need to ask!
Mbangura
as usual. stitch and bitch today at 4
alala
If I'd known about this I would never have agreed to move to the suburbs. Dang! Is this every Sunday? Could I just show up, if there were ever a Sunday when I was in Munich? Incidentally, I have inherited knitting stuff from 3 or 4 relatives who've given it up, and I also have leftover yarn from 10 years' worth of finished (and unfinished) projects. Free for the asking.
TexasTornado
You may come out any Sunday at 15:00 there are usually knitter's in the house. As for yarn, PLEASE! I forget each week and then sit there with a long face as everyone stitches and all I get to do is bitch.

You say that like it's a bad thing!

woof.
TexasTornado
@ BadDoggie, Not a bad thing. Just feel like I'm not enjoying the full experience. Have not seen you here lately with your yarn.

woof woof

I just thought I would revive this thread to invite those of you who normally participate in the Stitch & Bitch session to join the jewelry making event that has been scheduled to coincide with March 20th's S&B. Same place, same time - just more crafts. Nicky and I will have plenty of supplies available to make necklaces and matching earrings, if you so desire. Hope to see you there!
alala
I will be there this Sunday, always assuming I can find the Twisted Bavarian (serious navigational issues here). Now, I would never, ever give up knitting altogether, but I am thinking of slimming the operation down a bit, since I have duplicates of nearly everything, and loads of leftover yarn that I will never use. Did someone say they wanted stuff to practice on? All requests will be considered. I would just bring everything, dump it on the floor and let everybody take what they want, but unfortunately, I can't carry it all.

Also, I might be a bit late, since I'm going to go see Hitch at the Cinema first. Anybody else?
interplanetjanet
Oh, I'm definitely interested in learning how to knit. I've never done it before, so I wouldn't really know where to start. I'd love it if you'd share some of your supplies. I suppose any Earth-tone color is good for me. I'm happy to do a swap for some jewelry-making supplies, too, if you're interested.
alala
Well, I have never successfully taught anyone to knit, but I'm willing to give it another whack. I'm all excited to see you and the others making jewelry, that'll be interesting. But I think I'd better not swap, as my mission here is to get rid of stuff, without acquiring more. Let's see if I can maintain my resolve.

Going to the basement to look for some earth-tone yarn...
TexasTornado
Michelle and Uta are our regular knitting instructors and they have both told me to give it up. Apparently I have not talent.

@IPJ I am interested in buying supplies for jewelry making so bring all your goodies.
interplanetjanet
I'll have a whole crate of supplies there - beads, clasps, beading wire, earwires, etc. - so no problem there.
alala
drat, rats, poop. I can't make it today, the dog ate my homework (DH & I have a hairy translation project due monday morning, and my computer ate half the doc and I have to re-do it). v disappointed. Will try again next week.

-alala
tinap
Yay, always wanted to join a stitch and bitch. My stitch is cross stitch, but hey, the other part is the same, eh?

I don't get to Munich until April, but hopefully will see you sometime after that! Yippee!
oceanne
Hi! I am new in Munich and I was reading about the "stitch and bitch" group that meets at the Twisted Bavarian every Sunday afternoon. Is this still going on? Thanks!
TexasTornado
We don't have as many stitch & bitchers during the summer therfore we open at 17:00 (ahem, 5:00 PM) you're welcome to come on down and stitch, bitch & drink.
Kristin
Yaay! I am a knitting freak and belong to a German knitting circle, but their meetings are not always convenient for me. I'm going to check it out!!! See you soon biggrin.gif
QueenFlea
so just because its summer these stitchin bitches dont show up!??? is there ANYBODY that still knits there? i wanna come in july when im in munich.

oceanna we should go together.
interplanetjanet
There will be a few of us at the Twisted Bavarian on Sunday making jewelry, so even if other knitters don't show up, feel free to bring your knitting supplies and join us. Same thing, different craft. smile.gif
Nicky
I'll come along. Just felt stupid sitting there at the bar on my own and eating too much. Would be nice to know that someone else was going on a given Sunday, though? Perhaps we should say on this thread if we are going?
oceanne
I want to come and knit! Sorry about last Sunday, I went to Starnberg instead. (taking advantage of the sunny weather) rolleyes.gif But I should be around this Sunday... tongue.gif
Gen
This Sunday the weather's supposed to be terrible and rainy, so bring your stuff in plastic bags.

Just to be on topic, the TwiBa website's been stitched up too, anyone want to bitch about it? Ha ha ha!

YOU ROCK GEN!

Hey, I am from the States and have been knitting since I was just a young thing! I have already been here for 2 months and have been trying to find knitting stores but they have thus far eluded me. Is the stitch and bitch still active and running for today? I would love to join you folks, and possibly get hints of where to go by some yarn as well.

thanks!
