Thanks to Kris McCracken and wife Jen, I heard of World Wide Knit in Public Day.
In the normal world it happened this year on June 14, I believe.
But because that was a Saturday, and Saturday is the Jewish Sabbath, and knitting is considered work, and work is not done on Shabbat, Israeli knitters sat outside together and created on Sunday instead.
Imagine my delight a few days ago to discover the fruit of their labor in downtown Jerusalem, on the bronze Mare of Peace!
