You love to go out. We love to go out. You love to eat. We love to eat. You love to drink. Well, you get the idea. So when you're itching for the lastest Chicago nightlife has to offer, check out The Extrovert for up-to-the minute details on the scene.
That's a wrap!
If you missed the Renegade Craft Fair Holiday Sale last weekend, don't knit yourself a noose of hand-dyed organic lambswool just yet. Get your DIY fix at the mothership, a.k.a. Renegade Handmade, a store where you can browse all manner of irresistible crafts and even pick up a gift or two (or three, if you must shop for persons other than yourself). Oh, and here's the skinny on last weekend's fair: the octopus, in a sweep any politician would envy this time of year, replaced the owl as the new darling of the craft world (Why? Beats us), and knitters' fingers seemed to have finally tired of turning out mountains of caps, scarves, mittens and bobbles. (Is yarn an endangered species?) Despite the season, there were still some good picks for T-shirt addicts like myself. I picked up a soft-as-silk long-sleeved T-shirt from Renegade regular maryink, $35, to add to my collection.
