Sticks and strings come together on Mondays with the Knitwits & Hookers, a local group of crafty and hilarious knitters and crocheters. (Meetup details vary; find them on Facebook at tinyurl.com/knitwitsandhookers.) Its project posts on ravelry.com tell the story: a woven ball of knitted loops; winter hats with knitted beard attachments; a lovely, yet unexpectedly challenging "lacy cap-sleeve top" with the note, "DONE. OH MY GOD I NEVER WANT TO KNIT THIS AGAIN." Even if scarves and potholders are more your game, give this group a try; maybe you can make your own bearded beanie. — Edie Adelstein
