Some of you may remember my little visitor that came over the summer back in July (you can check out his visits here, here, and here)

We had a great time in the Queen City!He has been having loads of fun by already visiting:
*Anna's Yarn Mansion in Bremerton/Seattle, WA
*Adrienne's Little World in Birmingham, AL
* Superstarra-ville in Los Angeles, CA

And he is currently visiting Maddie Knits in Arlington, VA but needs to visit another person!

Maybe he can come and visit to knit with you? ;o)If you are willing to host this snuggly cutie for about a week please be sure you click on the link below!

I like keeping up with him and seeing him in our knitting community!!

I can't wait to see where Mr. Teddy will end up next!! :oD

Well it looks like my time with Teddy has come to an end and I must bid him ado!

I had a great week with him and we did a lot of things together!

The other day when I was feeling "sexy" while knitting. Teddy decided he wanted to take a whirl with knitting too!

So while here we just had to go to our favorite LYS Charlotte Yarn!Yah!! The owner Remi was in and her beautiful baby Ava! :o) You must visit this shop if you are ever in the QC! They are just sweethearts there! You can't beat a welcoming environment and wall to wall yarn variety. Yum!
Of course we had to pick up some yarn for a future project! What is a trip without yarn shopping!Our final stop was visiting the SNB knitters at their knit night! The ladies just loved Teddy and passed him around to everyone. They really were impressed with his backpack (Thanks Anna!) and all the goodies inside that he is getting during his travels. What a perfect ending to be in a knitting circle. See! He is knitting on the cabled cardigan from Fitted Knits via Amie of course!! :op She has a great podcast, be sure to check her out!

Where is Teddy off to next?? It looks there is a family eager to have him in Alabama! Adrienne has lots of fun things planned for him and I can't wait to see what my Teddy friend will be up to soon!


Adrienne is another great knitter and has an awesome weekly podcast too! I love how Teddy is traveling around from knitter to knitter! :o) We must keep him in the circle!!

And I hear there are a few more knitters who want him to visit them too! Looks like a wait list needs to get started up!! :oD But all you have to do is express your interest to the person who has him and if he is not spoken for yet he will travel to come see you too (the bear owner will just need to be notified).

Teddy it was great having you! Come back and visit us again in North Cakalaki!!

Sadly Teddy's trip is coming to an end and he will be saying goodbye to Charlotte soon! But what fun he is having!

He hopes your weekend is filled with knitting! :o)

I mentioned on yesterday how I have a special visitor here with me this week.
Here he is sitting on pretty Lizzie!
I received him by way of Anna in Seattle! He is 1 of 3 special traveling teddy bears!
From my understanding there is one in NYC, one in Argentina, and now one in Charlotte! :op

Teddy came by to visit Anna last week and she crocheted him the cutest backpack for his travels! Check out his visit with Anna here and here.
Isn't the backpack freakin cute!! (NORO sitting on top of NORO! I couldn't resist!) I actually like the fact that he is the only Teddy that has this special backpack. All the other ones look so blah! Plus, it will be easier for us to keep up with him as he travels around (via Traveling Teddy Flickr Group) since we will know he is the only one with this backpack.

I am going to tell y'all right now Teddy will not be getting anything knitted up from me LOL I have enough on my plate! :op
Heck he got on me about not having some of my knitted objects seamed up yet!!
So Teddy was getting antsy on yesterday and demanded to go with me. Well fine! Off we go!
Hey I stuffed him in the bag since he was getting all fussy with me! Hahaha!

But I did take extra special care with him in the car by making sure he was all safe! :op
As we drove into the city for a day at the job, Teddy got really excited as we approached the building! And mentioned how this looks like a fun place to work!
He helped me some throughout the the day...mainly to tell me to straighten up my desk! Hahaha!
Teddy had enough of sending out e-mails for me :op
So I guess that was enough job shadowing for one day! LOL
And he quickly climbed the stairs so we could leave! (yes, I work in a dungeon! :op) Haha!
Well as we ventured outside in uptown Charlotte he noticed this
Yep, some of you may be familiar with the Panthers NFL team here!

MMmh looks like Teddy wants to visit some places. More to come! :o)
