My BF Knits

My boyfriend knits and I think it's cute. Last year Rocky and I went to Mendocino for a weekend getaway. We stayed at a Bed & Breakfast and it had no tv, no phones, no computer, it had nothing it was a place for relaxing. Rocky draws so he brought his drawing stuff and I brought my knitting and some books at one point he got tired of reading/drawing and he decided to watch me knit and after about 10 minutes of watching he asked me if he could try it. He did and caught on pretty fast. I think he managed to knit about 10 rows before he finally stopped. Tonight we are going to the Giants game for Stitch-n-Pitch night. Yes, the Giants are having a knitting night.

Stitch n' Pitch NightThursday, July 20 - Your SF Giants invite you to the first annual Stitch n' Pitch night at AT&T Park. Bring your projects to the game and meet other knitters all while enjoying Giants baseball. Specially priced tickets for Stitch n' Pitch include your ticket to the game and your own Giants Stitch n' Pitch tote bag to carry around all your supplies.

Anyway, so there are a bunch of us going and we decided it'd be cute to knit beanies in the Giants Orange and Black colors. I invited Rocky to go and he said he'd even knit his own hat :o) hee, hee. I started and finished the hat for him but he knitted everything in between. He did a great job. I'll have to take a pic of the finished product but here is a picture of him knitting on the plane to San Diego over the weekend.
