The Stitch and Bitch London Knit Crawl for Worldwide Knit in Public Day.
Four iconic London sights.
Four chances to knitblast four iconic London sights.
Stop four. The final stop. Trafalgar Square under the watchful gaze of Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson and his four lions.
South-East Lion: Gawd blimey I wish these bleedin’ tourists would stop clambering about on me ‘ead. I sit ‘ere all day guardin’ the Vice Admiral and what thanks do I get, ay? Day in, day aht bleedin’ tourists drippin’ ice cream on me barnet. ‘ang about! Woss goin’ on over there? Oi, you! Girlie!
Deadly Knitshade: Umm. Me?
*quickly stands in front of knitblast*
South-East Lion: You know very well I mean you, sunshine. What the bloody ‘ell do you think you’re playin’ at with that pink and blue thing?
Deadly Knitshade: It’s knitting. I’m… errrr… decorating.
*steps out of the way and waves hands at knitblast in hopefully enticing manner*
South-East Lion: Decorrrrating, she says! With a bit of knitting? Would you Adam and Eve it? This is Trafalgar Square, young lady. Not your ‘ouse!
Deadly Knitshade: But it’s Worldwide Knit in Public Day…

*Deadly Knitshade looks up with a slightly evil glint in eyes*
Deadly Knitshade: Make me.
South-East Lion: You cheeky bugger!
Deadly Knitshade: *blows raspberry*
South-East Lion: If I wasn’t currently covered in over-excited Japanese tourists makin’ peace signs at the camera I’d bite yer ‘ead off!
Deadly Knitshade: Happy Worldwide Knit in Public Day!

South-East Lion: Oi! Get back ‘ere! *sighs* Bloomin’ graffiti knitters. Back in my day knittin’ stayed in the ‘ome. Admiral Nelson’s gonna ‘ave me guts for garters…
(A little help for those who don’t speak English English)
The colors pop, and maaaan do I wish I could get free ice cream drippings. Oh to be statuary. *wist*
Distract people with yarn and steal their ice creams?
