Making beanies by the dashboard light

What does a knitter do when there's just an hour and a bit between appointments but to go home would take about the same time and be wasteful of petrol?

Park by Lake Burley Griffin, watch the outline of the black swans against the charcoal waters, gaze over at the pretty lights playing on the water on the opposite bank and knit a beanie.

There are far worse ways of spending a little time on a Thursday evening before catching up with a very old friend from Sydney at a community function and enjoying the generous (and yummy) hospitality of that community.

Sounds like a pretty nice thing to do. How peaceful!

Having peace and quiet for an hour sounds heavenly to me. Being able to knit in that hour would send me over the moon.

I try to always have my knitting in my bag: love the green-ness!!
