Knit in Public Day. I have no photos because a) I frogged my work--a couple times--and gave up, & b) I forgot. But I indeed went to the coffee shop where I'd gone the past two years to knit with the same people. I'm sure they'll be back next year. Then I'll take a photo. #showmeyourknits #knitsky

I noticed large carabiners and harnesses on the workers. They were clipped to the scaffolding above their heads. Safety, one assumes.
