Cool! I think I'd drive off the road if I saw a knitting bumpersticker. I know thier out there, but I don't know how I'd react if I saw one! How silly is that?

HAPPY MONDAY!!!
Gonna be another hot one in Valleyscorch, today. Bleah.

having lived in LA and SD counties and the OC, i know you have commuters doing everything under the sun while driving, glad she'd rather be knitting - instead of actually knitting... :)
hope you had a great weekend and did some stuff you enjoyed since you abandoned the innernets for two whole days!
Oh, i know you don't crochet (or crotchit as we call it at home) but i'm working on a felted purse and posted an in progress pic at the blahg if you want to check it out.

I'd like to git me one o' them stickers! Since I no longer have a husband to drive me around I can't knit'n'ride any more. "Sniff". But I'd still rather be knitting!

I'd love ones of those, but I won't put stickers on my car. Which is weird, because I love readying bumperstickers.

I don't put stickers on my car, either. Don't want anyone to know anything about me (based on the car alone). Must be an LA thing, b/c I've never had a problem with that before.
Anyhoo, I would DEFINITELY put that sticker on my forehead. At work. Just in case they didn't know.

Just got your book in the mail, look forward to reading it!

Love it! I'll have to get DH to make me one in Latin :).

I would loove one of those but I share a car with my husband, who is a non-knitter. I love your book by the way. :-)

I saw a similar vehicle on PCH the other day, with the bumper sticker "Make Socks, Not War!" with a graphic of knitting needles. An old man was driving. :)

Definitely would rather knit than sit in traffic!
Posted by: Nell at June 30, 2008 11:56 AM
Dang! I've said for years that I wanted to have that on my car. Should have copyrighted it or something. I even spent (considerable) time once trying to fit it onto a vanity plate. (Didn't work -- too long)
I hope you waved your needles at this driver!

Yay, a knitting bumper sticker and a UCD one, too. Awesome.
Go Ags!

My husband would die if I put that on my car. I must look for one today. LOL!

Laurie! I saw that same exact car yesterday on my way to Target! I had to speed up to look inside and the husband was driving and the nice knitterly wife was in the passenger seat! I thought "Ahh, what a nice guy!" and "I'd rather be knitting too!" I couldn't see if she was knitting!
Posted by: Gretchen at June 30, 2008 01:01 PM
Maybe you could get one for the Jeep?
Posted by: trashalou at June 30, 2008 01:11 PM
I'd rather be knitting, too. The owner of the yarn store I frequent has I KNIT on her license plate.

Love that bumper sticker!
I saw one today which I thought you'd love. Sadly I wasn't in a position to photograph it, but I remember the text: "Sex is not the answer. Sex is the question. "Yes" is the answer." :o)

Usually I hate bumper stickers...but this is a good one!
Posted by: Suze at June 30, 2008 03:47 PM
I want one, too. BTW, I just finished your book....very good! Thanks for writing it. I remember you when you started your blog....I didn't comment on anything then, but I remember you and have you as one of the first bookmarks on my computer to show it!

One of these days I'm going to get a bike and then get a bumper sticker to put on the cross bar or something.
This just might be the bumper sticker.

As a non knitter and double Davis alum, I'm more excited about the UC Davis bumper sticker! I read your post on my blackberry and had to come back tonight to determine if that was indeed what I thought it was.
GO AGS! (even in Southern California)

I would rather be knitting too!
I snagged 3 skeins of Paton's Rumor at Michael's today for $2.00 each!
Woohoo! I've already cast on my garter stitch scarf.

My husband was driving us somewhere last weekend and we pulled up to K2TOG sticker and I excitedly pointed and said "they're my people!"

Am I the only one who is wildly impressed that you know how to fuzzy-out the license plate number of the car? And then insert an enlarged view of the bumper sticker on your photo? Absolutely amazing!
Posted by: Heather at July 1, 2008 06:28 AM
I LOVE bumper stickers. My husband hates them. Every car we get for me ends up with one and he gets so mad (hahahahahaha). My current one reads : The Goddess Loves You...Everyone Else Thinks You're A Jerk.
I would have a dozen if "allowed". Love that knitterly one.
