Hong Kong Knitting
So now I've relocated myself to Hong Kong, which has a smaller knitting interest than what I'm used to. Even though I live in the New Territories, far away from civilization, I have managed to find a tiny little knitting shop about a 20 minute walk away. It's in the "Bua Bao Shopping Arcade" which is pretty much the sketchest shopping place I have ever seen. Its the bottom floor of some apartment buildings, and is about the size of a closet. The lady who runs it speaks fairly good English and does beautiful crochet work. I've managed to pick up some wonderful yarns for fairly cheap, but alas, she doesn't carry double-pointed needles. I haven't been that creative here, just a few hats and scarves, but they've all turned out beautifully. I'm off this weekend to explore some new knitting shops that I've heard rumors about. I feel cut-off without my DPNs!
