Today I went downtown Chicago on the train along with a group of knitters. We worked on the train knitting, but I did needlelace. We met a Chicago knitting group at the French Market and sat and worked, in my case for about 4 hours before I caught the train back home. This time I knitted going home. I caused quite a bit of interest at the market with my needlelace. Everyone was impressed with the portability. I think the group probably numbered about 35 of us all working and talking up a storm. I had no idea the French Market even existed. It is under the Ogilvy station and you could hear the trains rumbling overhead while we worked. I had to treat myself to a French crepe and told myself it was good for me as it was made with wholewheat flour. Next time I will shop for food and maybe the cheese stall will have some Lancashire cheese in stock. The Belgian fries were popular with the knitters.
