Are you ready for this weekend?? It's Knit City Vancouver!
This is something I always look forward to, and it's a little extra special this year because it's the final weekend at the PNE Forum. There have been many a-nights eating take-out noodles at the Atrium and singing karaoke at the hotel bar. (Not me singing, me listening to other people sing, of course!)
Workshop tickets are all sold out, but I'll be milling about the marketplace on Saturday afternoon, so please feel free to stop me to say hi, chat with me about knitting and show off your marketplace goodies ❤️
Purchase Your Marketplace Tickets
Since it's the last year at the PNE Forum, I thought I'd share a few of my favourite things to do in the area.
Italian Gardens - Take a break from the hustle and bustle of the marketplace in this beautiful garden filled with opera themed sculptures and bubbling fountains. It's located right on the Hastings grounds, just past the skate park.
Pho Don - Right across the street from the Atrium Hotel, stop into Pho Don for some knitting and noodles. The Chicken Vermicelli Bowl is my favourite, just make sure not to mix up your chopsticks and knitting needles!
Tacofino Commissary - If margaritas and tacos are more your thing, take a jaunt down Hastings Street to Tacofino. It's about five blocks down the road, near Hastings and Nanaimo, and has the most delicious fish tacos I've ever had.
Slidey Slides Park - Got littles joining you? On the other side of Hastings Park is my daughter's favourite playground. It's got some really, really great slides. Like, really great.
