Knitting and comedy intertwine for Texan writer/actor Elaine Liner's smart five-star hit about unravelled romances, unrivalled literature and life's knottiest dilemmas. All you knit is love for an hour BroadwayBaby.com calls 'the feelgood moment of the Fringe... full of wit... told with style and elegance'. TheaterJones.com says it's 'a purl jam!' 'Like listening to a friend who really needs to tell you some stories' (Dallas News). Come early to add rows to Elaine's travelling scarf. Bring your own knitting or crocheting and stitch while you laugh in a comfy, intimate, air-conditioned venue.
