Every Monday 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m at Loopy Yarns located at 47 West Polk Street. Call 312/583-YARN (9276) for more details.

This great yarn shop has all of the luxury of a knitting boutique with the friendliness of the "Cheers" bar. Their weekly Monday Workshop is perfect for sweater knitters to gather, to get the help & guidance and the support you need through your project. Just come to work on your sweater or feel free to bring any questions or slip ups that you just can't quite figure out.

Thrones, Pontiak @ Empty Bottle

Headlining this evening at the Bottle is Thrones -- the ongoing solo project from sometimes Earth/Melvins/High On Fire/Sunn O))) bassist, guitarist and Moog-man Joe Preston. Of special interest on the billing is the Virginian brother trio Pontiak, whose trippy and intriguing new album Maker came out last month on the Thrill Jockey label. (See the GB review here.) Helen Money opens. Doors open at 9:30pm, and admission is free. 1035 N. Western.
