Knitting in pub picture
On one of the gazillion knitting sites I have visited in the last few
months, there is a great picture of a couple old grizzled men in a pub and one is knitting. More than anything I want a large print of that picture. I'm sure I bookmarked that site but I have ended up bookmarking practically every site I see so I've lost it. Does anyone know which site I'm talking about AND would anyone happen to have any information about that picture? Obivously, I would be thrilled if someone could simply point me to an online site for me to buy the print, but I'll settle or photographer or name of picture, or anything. Thanks!

Hi Laurie, I don't know the site you mean sadly, as I would like to have
had a look. BUT .. when did you last view it? I ask as it may still be on your hard drive....go to Windows Explorer, and look under the windows file for your History folder, click on it, and then look to see if you can see it in the list that comes up on the other side of the screen.. HTH you locate it....Cheers......Cher "Laurie" wrote in message om...

I just had a book from the library which had the very picture - (I'm SURE of this). I'll look through my list of books I've had and see if I can figure out which book it was. I thought it might be in the books I have right now, but, no of course not. I could have scanned and e-mailed you the picture. What a great picture it was too! Shelagh |

I must say I do not get all bits and pieces so when conversations become a bit dis-jointed.....I came up with the wrong end of the sick....nice young end though.......I thought Mirjam was talking about knitting and have a beer....today..... Pub knitting in old paintings should not be hard to find.....I am thinking of Jan Steen for one, but there are others as well who did paint that kind of thing....Breughel is another one. Sorry Cher....I think you would look lovely as a knitter in a pub...... Els -- I have added a trap for spammers......niet..... |

Oh, Els, I have to find that! I love Breughel - he pays such close attention to tiny details. Katherine |

Ah HAH! I found it! It wasn't on a website, it was in a magazine. I
had a revelation and started going through all my knitting magazines. Sure enough, on page 18 of Knit It! is the picture. Problem is, the picture isn't credited so I don't know if it is in the book this article is an excerpt of ("A Passion For Knitting" by Nancy Thomas and Ilana Rabinowitz) or if the magazine threw it in. There is no photographer or anything. But it is such a cool picture I can't live without it. If anyone has that book (or access to that book) is the photo in there? Maybe that is where you saw it Shelagh? If it isn't in that book I'll contact the publishers of the magazine. (still looking for an online snap of the photo to share with you guys) Laurie Washougal, WA |

Katherine I did look for the Jan Steen ones but although there was a pub scene listed could not find a picture of it. I also seem to remember that one of the French impressionists did a pub scene as well....more than one for sure, but most of these do not have knitters in them.
