Join Us in Producing "The World’s Longest Scarf"
Come join the "Poulsbohemian Sip-N-Knitters" every Thursday afternoon from 4:00 to 7:00 PM.  Bring your own projects or add a few rows to "Our World’s Longest Scarf” project.  And to date more than 200 men, women, and kid knitters have contributed to our effort!

Or just come by anytime really, and sit and knit a stitch or two while enjoying a latte.  If you want, bring in left-over "end yarn" that will be added to create this fiber art piece.  The current record is Twenty-One Miles held by some old Scottish ladies, so here we go ...
So our scarf will go for Twenty-two Miles ... that’s about the distance from the Poulsbohemian to Marianna’s house up in Hansville.  We have two ends going at once which cuts the knitting time in half.  So far, it's been calculated to take 54 years.  Come by and take a few years off. Caffeine will speed up the production.  And as you can see from the photo below, Marianna's been working double duty on this daunting task. Come in and give her a break!  
Catch us and this picture in the Spring/Summer 2008 edition of Vogue Knitting International Magazine.

A Poulsbohemian Passport is a punchcard.  It works like this … purchase a card by paying for ten drinks and get the eleventh drink FREE!  

We punch your card for eleven visits.  We have a card file, too, so you don’t have to keep track of it.  We let you know when you are about to run out.  It’s like insurance.  This way you’ll never be without your favorite drink. 

A Passport may also be purchased for cookies, soup and sandwiches.  Anything you might like eleven of. 
It’s a deal at a 10% discount.

"Coffee falls into the stomach and ideas begin to move, things remembered
arrive at a gallop and the shafts of wit start up like sharp-shooters,
similes arrive, the paper is covered with ink."

And Here's a Bit of Nostalgia ...
The old view of Poulsbo's lovely Liberty Bay ... really hated to see all that beautiful ivy go ....

then said "A view?  Oh, a view!  How delightful a view is!"

The Poulsbohemian Philosophy ...

Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobody's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.

   

Where the elite meet the beat... Where the elite meet the beat... Where the elite meet the beat...
