December is a wonky month, what with starting on a Tuesday and then all of the holidays, too. We won't exactly follow our regular schedule for December.

We had a great time at Panera last time, we're going to head back! There was so much space and light, it was awesome! There is also something for everyone: dinner, dessert, snacks, coffee drinks, etc. We will try to get that nice big table with the lighting - if you're there first, grab that table if it's empty! If not, we'll push some tables together.

Panera is located at 616 W. Diversey. It's easiest to get there using the Clark or Broadway bus, or the Diversey bus from the brown line.

We will be collecting the $1 Meetup fee.

Cost: $1.00

Join us after work the first Wednesday of the month at Cafe WhaWho?, just a short hop away from the Chicago Brown Line stop. The cafe has a full bar, coffee, small eats and pastry.

Please note that this meetup begins at 5:45pm, and that the cafe closes at 8pm. We're happy to see you whenever you can make it - don't worry about being a little late or a little early!

We will be collecting the $1 meetup fee.

This time at Leona's we're having the holiday party - It's KNITMAS! We're planning this one far in advance because we want to make sure that everyone can make it. This Meetup will be a lot of FUN! There will be games and prizes!!

As a part of the fun of Knitmas, we are going to have a white elephant swap. If you'd like to participate (it is not required), you'll need to bring a gift with you. It can be new or re-gifted, but we're putting a $10 limit on it. It does not have to be knitting related, but it does need to be crafty-related. It will also need to be wrapped.

This will be at the Leona's at 3215 N. Sheffield. It's right off the Belmont stop, so it's really easy to get to. There is street parking available, and free valet parking, too. This will be our last meetup of 2008, as well.

We will be collecting our $1 Meetup dollar.

Cost: $1.00

Noble Tree's Day is usually Thursday, but December's Meetups are going to be a bit wonky so we moved Noble Tree's Meetup for this month.

We will be on the 3rd floor starting at 6:30. Order your food and drink downstairs and head upstairs with it! We are booked for the 3rd floor, and it usually ends up being full of knitters! It's a great place to hang out!

Noble Tree is at 2444 N. Clark Street. You can get to it using the Clark, Broadway, or Fullerton bus. There is street parking, but it can be hard to find.

We will be charging the $1 Meetup fee.

Cost: $1.00

Potbelly was a really great so we're going to make it a regular thing!

This Potbelly is located at 924 W. Belmont. It's right off the Belmont stop for the Red/Brown line trains, and it's not far from Clark, either. There is street parking, but I would not count on finding a spot.

The manager is very excited for us to be meeting there. We will ordering off the menu - it will be a bit easier than some places where we have to get a check and then split it all up at the end. The best part? The manager said that we are welcome to grab a drink from the Jamba Juice that is next door and bring it in with us, as long as you buy a sandwich!

We will be collecting the $1 Meetup fee.
