UNDERGROUND JUSTICE AND HANDMADE LUCK

last night after knitting for a little bit at the taqueria, meg and emmanuel and i wandered over to waste not want not on westminster after being told by amelia about knit and natter on monday nights. things were quiet, but we got to poke around a little and this place is seriously really amazing. i’m so psyched that it exists. from their facebook page:

“Unlike any business that Providence has known, this business promotes resourceful creativity through recycling, reuse and repurpose of reclaimed materials and found objects. The shop promises to introduce new concepts and forward thinking to a city known for its thriving arts community. This non-profit business model is three fold, with a focus on thrift store sales, textile workshop and “upcycled,” boutique apparel, accessories and home ware.”

we walked in on a knitting machine lesson/demonstration and were so impressed and excited. monday nights are knit and natter nights, from 6 to 9. and on stitch and bitch happens on thursday nights:

how can you even argue with this flyer? amazing. i’ll definitely make it down to knit on thursday night. if you live in or around providence and like to knit or crochet, you should too. i think this place will be an awesome resource for conscientious, crafty people. and because i can get more than a little reclusive, it’s nice to find something new that will drag me out of the house and put me in a place full of people with a common interest. i kind of wish it was thursday already! go look at this place if you haven’t already.
