March meeting!

Like Lulu said :when we ,the Amiras, meet we usually stay at the Caribou café until there is nothing we can talk about and that is never!!!!
The things that let us leave are sometimes : a daddy not being able to handle the baby , or a husband who is bored ,and even more not to miss the hairdresser appointment for attending a big wedding the same night..Otherwise we would stay till the café or the mall closes its doors.

Eva we missed your presence.....
Charmaine too , but hey she is having fun in london :)

Not so much knitting happened during this month meeting , we were busy in catching up and having each others opinion on our WIPs...

I know i know , you want photos :)

On my way to Marina Mall , i took a picture of Emirates Palace and the humidity that is rising..eeek

FLS KAL!

The February Lady Sweater Knit Along has officially begun!!!


Everyone at the BIG ABU DHABI / DUBAI meet, that is participating in the KAL did swatches together and then cast on for the FLS. I even did a swatch (thanks Charmaine!).

So everyone in on the FLS KAL please keep the blog update with your progress and any questions or problems that you run across. You can also check out the discussion regarding this KAL in our Rav group here.


BTW: the meeting today was so much fun! It was great to meet so many people (17 in total i think) in person and see everyone's fantastic projects! It was great fun and I can't wait for the next time we get all the groups together... This was a perfect way to spend a Friday
