Subway Knitter ...not afraid to knit in public
So I'm riding the 4 train down from the UES (that's New York for Upper East Side) and I spy a woman two seats away who's knitting like crazy with some red yarn. Hmm, I thought, must be a Christmas gift. It was indeed. Turns out this woman (who instantly slid over to me and asked what I was knitting) is an UES nanny and is making a red hat for one of her little charges.
And, some UES family is getting a steal of a childcare deal: according to this woman she makes $600 a week for a 60-hour workweek. [Love it when I get subway TMI--too much information.]

Wow. Despite the urban slave wages, she still has the desire to knit for the children.
Merry Christmas to all. Even the UES Scrooges.
