SISTAH FRIENDS KNIT-A-QUE IN HARLEM ORGANIZED BY SAHARA BRISCO
I STOPPED BY REAL QUICK TO THE SISTAH-FRIENDS KNIT-A-QUE AT ST NICHOLAS PARK IN HARLEM, AT 132 ST. ST. NICHOLAS AVE.. I GOT THERE JUST BEFORE SUNDOWN AND FOLKS WAS STILL THERE.
THE GATHERING WAS GREAT, I BROUGHT SOME KNITTING TO WORK ON, BUT, JUST LIKE LAST YEAR,... I DID'NT EVEN TAKE IT OUT OF MY BAG.
FROM WHAT I HEARD BEFORE I ARRIVED, A LITTLE BIT OF KNEEDLE WORK WAS DONE,.... AND A WHOLE LOT OF EATING WAS DONE.
LAST YEAR WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE NEW BABIES ARRIVAL,... AND NOW HERE SHE IS, AT HER SECOND SISTAH FRIENDS KIT-A-QUE... SHE IS SUCH A GOOD BABY.... SHE IS TRULY ONE OF THE GIRL'S.
SAHARA, THE ORGANIZER OF THIS EVENT, BARE-FOOT AND WORKING AT HER SPINNING WHEEL. SAHARA IS A FABULOUS KNITTER, SHE IS REALLY SKILLED, SHE IS SPINNING HER OWN DESIGNER YARN HERE. SHE IS A EXCELLENT KNITTING INSTRUCTOR ALSO.
ALL OF A SUDDEN EVERYONE WENT FOR MORE FOOD AT THE SAME TIME.
FOLKS HELPING THEMSELVES TO MAKE A PLATE TO TAKE HOME LEFT OVERS.
THIS HERE IS MY FISH ON THE GRILL... ENOUGH GOOD THINGS CANNOT BE SAID ABOUT HOW TASTY FISH ON A OUT-DOORS GRILL IS... AM I RIGHT OR WRONG?
THE HOMEMADE WITH LOVE,... RED VELVET CUPCAPES YUMMY, YUM, YUM!!!!!
THIS NEEDLE ARTIST BROUGHT GIFTS FOR EVERYONE.... LITTLE BAGS OF CRYSTAL STITCHE HOLDERS FOR KNITTERS, THEY WERE SO BEAUTIFUL, SHE REALLY DID A WONDERFUL JOB ON THESE CREATIONS. I HOPE THESE TREASURED ITEMS ARE PART OF HER PRODUCT LINE.
HERE SHE IS HOLDING A FEW BAGS THAT SHE GAVE AWAY TO EVERYONE THAT ATTENDED, EACH BAG HAD 5 STITCH HOLDERS FOR KNITTING IN EACH BAG... THAT WAS SO VERY SWEET OF HER.
THIS IS EVERYONE GRABBING FOR A BAG OF THE STITCH HOLDERS TO TAKE HOME WITH THEM.
ADMIRING THIER NEW NEEDLE ART TREASURE TOOLS.
SAHARA TAKING PHOTO'S OF KNITTED WORKS IN PROGRESS.
