At this moment, the plans are set for the “Harlot After Party” at Guero’s Taco Bar at 1412 S. Congress Ave., just a block away from the Congress Avenue Baptist Church where she will be speaking from 10am – 1pm. (Ah, the irony … the Harlot is going to be talking at a church!) However, after looking at the site linked above, I’m worried that they won’t have a place to put us all. So I am calling them back in the morning, just to make sure. The guy that I have been talking with sounded very confident that they could accommodate us. Plus he said that they like rowdy knitters.
I decided this was the best option because at 1pm, we will all be ready for lunch. It is close to the church. The food is good – I have eaten there before. So I think we will all have a good time!
Spread the news, spread the word, post to your blog if you have one – knitters or non-knitters, bloggers or non-bloggers, everyone is welcome to join us! If you are coming, let me know so I have a rough estimate to give them on Friday. If you are bringing friends, let me know that too. I’ll bring nametags. And since I have planned these events many times before for bloggers, it is a good idea to bring cash to pay with. It just makes it easier for everyone in the long run.
The Harlot is coming! The Harlot is coming!

Ooohhh that sounds like fun! I wish I could join you all but it’s a little far to travel fromhere in the UK! Am so jealous though – I love the Harlot’s ‘At Knits End’ book, I’m sure you’ll have a great time!
Thanks for putting this together, Christine! I’ll see you there…
I’ll be there!!
I’ll be there with one of my knit buds. Guero’s al pastor with pineapple. Yum!
I’ll be there! mmm..mole
me too!
Should we say something to Suzanne over at HCW? So she can spread the word too?
This sounds fantastic! Aside from Staci, there are definitely 5, possibly 6 of us coming from Central Houston SnB. I’m sure we’ll all be game! Thanks for posting to the “HipKnit” board. 🙂
I will be there with bells on, and perhaps some snazzy sock knitting/small project bags to barter with for a drink, snack, or any other kind of trade. I’ll post a picture on my blog later tonight if anyone wants a sneak preview. I made one for myself earlier in the week and find it quite handy.
I commented to Julia that I was HCW yesterday and mentioned that the bloggers were planning an afterparty, possibly at Guero’s (I hadn’t seen your official post so I wasn’t sure at that point) so someone may want to make an official invite, etc.
Tschuss!
Sounds like fun, count me in.
There are 7 or 8 of us coming from San Antonio, in two cars. (Actually, there are probably others coming from SA, too, but these are ones I know about!) I’m going out on a limb to say that we’ll come to the after-party — at least, the people in my car will be there! 😉
