Today, in the middle of an exam, I was escorted out by the campus police due to suspicion of a concealed weapon. The officers couldn't stop laughing for 20 minutes when they found out the weapon was metal knitting needles. FML

- Quilting isn't knitting. That's like telling someone to drill a hole with a welding torch. - You can knit while between classes, or waiting for a class to start, or riding a public bus to campus. - The only time you shouldn't have knitting needles is when you have your crochet hook.

Well it's a good excuse for cheating "Are you looking off someones paper?". "Why no I'm just finnishing this quilt and there are two big convienient holes in it."

wow that's harsh. that's never happened to me, though i was always aware it could. I use to knit all the time at one point. it's nice to do something productive once in a while. anyway, as far as you YDI people know, the OP could be a textiles/fashion design student.

LOOOoOOOOL!! but i feel bad that you couldnt do your exam properly.

Why am I not surprised this happened in California?

Well why she had them was her backoack or purse and during lunch or breaks etc or waiting for her ride, Bus etc she could relax/Waste time... Though really its not at all wasting time. hmmm I may try knitting...

I feel your pain, I often knit during exams as well

Aiiiieee! She's part of an Al-Qaeda sleeper cell that is executing a plot to cover Americans with ugly, itchy sweaters!

#10 just because you and your ex boyfriend tried to stick knitting needles up your ass and you still have horrible dreams to this day about being discovered by your ubber religious parents with half an afghan out your ass does not mean people who (no matter their sex or sexual preference) enjoy knitting need to stop. Please do not bring your perverse knitting practices to the table. Those are for the bedroom.

Is your school guarded by TSA or something? What the f? On that note, switch to crocheting. One hook, no pointy ends.

When you want to think hard and knit your brow, you don't need needles for that! It's just a figure of speech. Of course, you are in California and the only needles you need near your brow are the ones to inject the Botox.
