Change of Venue for Friday Meetings

Hello all  ,
sorry we are not so active on here but yes we do still meet and greet and knit and eat :)

With  so many new venues opened in Abu Dhabi we have decided to change the Caribou Coffee one since was a bit at the end of the city...

Now we will meet every 2nd Friday of the month at RUBICONS coffee from noon.

It is in the New extension of AL WAHDA Mall , on the 3rd floor almost in the middle...

They have a great selection of beverages and snacks...

warning it is the same mall that Magrudys' is in so you can go and have a dip in their yarn stash :)

see you there..

Bus route from AD to IKEA

It seems they have changed some bus route and only BUS 190 pass next to IKEA...ignore all other buses that pass through Yas island.

NO Caribou Coffee on Friday The 13th July 2012

This last summer meeting before Ramadan we decided to meet in a different place then Caribou Coffee...

Abu Dhabi Friday Knitting meeting on July 13th ...will be held at - IKEA -YAS ISLAND-the coffee shop upstairs

Those with no cars either get the comfy bus (only 2dhs) numbers 200 201 203 300 302, 304 avoid 190 only if you remember to ask the driver to drop you off before he turns to Ferrari World..

or take the free ikea bus from marina mall 

or take a ride with someone with a car LoL..

meatballs...Yummy........

PS: you can find the router and bus timetable at Ojra website

Tuesday, Mardi, الثلثاء

Another month and the Tuesday meeting is just two days away...
We are waiting for you and your needles at Shakespeare Cafe (rehhan area branch) Tuesday 22 May 10 am (ofcourse this is in Abu Dhabi ) 


And just in case you don't know where it is check out the MAP for directions....


For those who are in the island and wants to use the BUS take Bus numbers ( i marked them also on the map):


34(AD courts),
44 (officers club),
54(petroleum institute) , 
56(khalifa park)


For Buses 34 ,44 and 54 you would leave the bus before you reach the traffic light of 31st street... there are 3 stops ,  the 1rst one is a bit far so the 2nd and the 3rd are equally good..
For Bus nb 56 best drop drop off is the 2nd  the 3rd is not available since the bus will take left lane after the 2nd drop off...




****THEY SAY that the temperature is only 42C today ......pfffffffffffffff my skin will tell you it is maybe 49 and reaching 50..........

Delicate wash

We are always worried when we  gift a hand knitted item that the receiver won't know how to wash it so we tend to give the yarn band and extra yarn just in case....
I saw this tag somewhere and i loved it....

MOM knows everything
