Levels of addiction

Please Note: The following is without photos because Blogger is….well, Blogger. Photo upload disabled. Therefore, just imagine a picture of a Dublin city bus. If you’ve never been to Dublin, try Google images, it’ll be much faster…

Later that same day:  Couldn’t leave it photo-less….argh….

A public transport knitting question…


So, when you’re on the bus, knitting to pass the time and making great headway because the traffic certainly isn’t moving, do you:

a) put your knitting away to disembark at the originally intended bus stop
b) get off at a later bus stop so that you can do a few more rounds
c) ask the bus driver to wait while you finish the last few stitches you’re working on

My answer, b). I’m at the middle addiction level. Was going to get off at O’Connell Street cuz traffic was slow and I could have walked faster to my final destination. Was making great progress in my knitting, though, so I decided, contrary to general public transport wisdom, to stay on the bus and exit a few stops later near Trinity College. Was able to do a few more rounds on the current work in progress.

So, what would you do?

    Oh dear. I should be ashamed to admit this but I would stop with finished row before my stop and just not knit until I got there!

    I would SO have stayed on the bus as you did. Somehow when the forces are outside your control, it’s so much easier to ….ya know… just go with them. :)
