Nod to the Royal Wedding

Our Mockingbird knitters group decided it would be fun to wear hats for our Friday morning gathering this week in honor of the Royal Wedding. Some of us even woke up to watch the festivities live; then, as each of us arrived with our hats decorated in various ways, we ooh-ed and ahh-ed and went to get our coffee. Marsha lamented that she hadn't thought to bring champagne in time to do so. We asked Laura if the Mockingbird Cafe had any on hand, and to our surprise, she brought out a bottle compliments of the house!

Here you see our group after a sip or two of the bubbly showing off jewelry (at least two of our members wore versions of the royal engagement ring) and practicing the royal wave. Marsha sent this to me and titled it: God save the Queen from the Mockingbird Knitters!
We had lots of fun commenting on how beautiful everyone looked, both here and at the REAL wedding, and I believe everyone enjoyed the break in routine. It was suggested that we include champagne more often. Don't know how much knitting we'd ever get done...hmmm.
