Workshop at POP UP BAR vitaminwater

Thibault — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 18:31:00 +0200

Last thursday, at the POP UP BAR, a mysterious place squatted by la clique d'André and vitaminwater — the cute colorful water bottles having a very hype launch in France — the gang was invited to handle a very private knitting workshop.

Submerged in balls of wool, needles and cute bottles, we invited artists, models, dj's, writers, muses and favorite bloggers. Some learn the primary tricks with our teachers Sara and Alison while other chic types sit themselves on the big couch, talk, gossip... needles going crazy.

While video tutorials are projected on the big screen, Lili is fighting to find a pair of needles to give to a demoiselle looking for a knitting experience. Some men are circling around, some brave ones have a go, well... it's a success ! Around us about thirty girls knitt at the same time. Gossip, cocktails and petit-fours in a really cool atmosphere, to the sound of a nice playlist.

After two intense hours, it's already time to say goodbye, show to friends what our knitted creation looks like... could be a mask from outer space... exchange facebook contacts under the euphoric effect of the knitting session. It's like a breath of fresh ar... so exciting for us to watch everything come alive... and the joy of everybody asking more... We promise we'll be back soon to knit with you !
