The Third Annual Knit in the Park was a success. It was mostly the regular Wednesday night gang and the Chix with Styx group. Carmen and her daughter, Jennifer, did drove up from Coconut Creek to join us. It's a shame that we didn't have more knitters, because the day was gorgeous. We sat in the shade of the pavilion, knitting and laughing as we enjoyed a slight breeze.
Let me tell you, knitters can cook! We had a really wonderful array of dishes to share for our potluck lunch. Mary brought pickle sandwiches, which I haven't had since I was a kid. (It sounds weird, but they are delicious.) I won't mention all the dishes, mostly because I don't want to leave anyone out by accident, but everything was great. And the margarita cupcakes were a favorite of everyone.
Adding the gift bags to the day's festivities was a great idea. It's always so nice to get a present. (We had everyone bring a gift bag, and they left with someone's else's offering.) This is definitely going to be a part of next year's Knit in the Park. We also had a give-away table and a Sale Your de-Stash.Between the friendship, the knitting, the food, and the yarn enhancers - it was a really great day!
