Well, actually, I did email all my friends and family who knit. Only
one responded, though, and she doesn't knit anymore. Still, if you never
try you never get anything done. ;-)

I think you will find it is an important day in the UK calendar Mary.
Here are a few of the listings of activities in England - if you Google
"wwkip day UK" it will turn up even more. I notice that Rowan Yarns in
Holmfirth are into this in a big way.

http://fairs.knitshop.co.uk/"
http://www.simplyknitting.co.uk/search/simplyknitting?q=wwkip
http://www.urbaneer.net/cities/london
http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/regions/manchester/2008/05/399566.html
and those sites do not even begin to cover what is being organised in
Scotland.
