knitting in public in poland

knitting in public is one of the few ways of making people smile at you here. people always look amused at me in cafes. the other day i was knitting on break at school. the secretary, who is generally tired of our complaining about anything and everything, was quite amused. then one of the bulgarians from our class came out and was really excited because she used to knit with her mom and her sister and the other night had had a dream about knitting. then various yarn vocabulary came up in class and that teacher was also impressed with Complicated Scarf pt.3.
