Today I went downtown Chicago on the train along with a group of
knitters. We worked on the train knitting, but I did needlelace.
Totally unaware of the significance of the day, yesterday I had arranged
to take one of the other members of our knitting group over to the
narrow gauge railway in North Wales (where I work as a volunteer
shedmaster - nothing glamorous, roughly translates to showing passengers
round the museum and doing "housework" between trains!). This involved
getting trains from Birmingham to Porthmadog and back - four and a half
hours each way, so we took our knitting to do on the train. Lydia was
working on squares for a baby blanket (as a group, we knit for a local
hospital) and I managed to finish one sleeve and start the other of a
cardigan I'm knitting for my granddaughter.
I'm now wondering whether there would be sufficient interest amongst the
North Wales lacemakers to join me in a "make lace on the train day" at
the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway, Porthmadog on National Lacemaking
Day (September 11th) - are any there Arachnes living in that area?
