Gaming meets Knitting
So, most of you now realize that I like to knit… a lot. Many of you may not realize I also like to play games. (Ok, and by many I mean any strangers that happen upon my blog since my friends and family all know I like to play games… often with them!) I like board games, card games, and even video games. (I am especially bad at video games… even worse when there are 2 analog sticks involved and I might get killed.)
Indulging my love of games is something I do less often than my handsome, XBox360 & PS3 owning fella. (He indulges his gaming, I indulge my knitting and we both sit on the sofa together.) However in 2 weekends it will be a 3 day extravaganza of gaming indulgence, and other game/comic/nerd type things. That is right my friends, the Penny Arcade Expo is coming and it will be in Boston! Yeah PAX East 2010! (I hope you already have you passes cause the 3 day ones are sold out!)
There will be panels, there will be concerts, there will be video, board, and role playing games (I’m gunna learn to play D&D and my sister will be competing for best DM in the Underdark D&D thingie) and there will be knitting!
That’s right. I said it. KNITTING!
So it turns out there are other people on Ravelry that are going to be attending PAX East. So after finding these people across several threads I have tried to organize us. I have also gone onto the PA forums and checked for interest there… and there is interest! Low and behold a PAX East/Ravelry unofficial meet-up is born!
So, if you love knitting, crochet, spinning, fiber arts, etc. (we have other crafter types coming as well, and hopefully the guy who knits with steel!) and you are going to the PAX East in 2 weekends then come on by! Right now the plan is to meet Saturday the 27th at 2.30p in the food court in the Prudential. I will make a sign, people can come and go as they please, and rumor has it that Paradise Bakery has excellent cookies. (Personally unverified cookie status.) See you there!
