Starting to get a little jittery because of your no smoking resolution?

The best way to take your mind off the fags is to keep your hands busy.

Mingle with the beautiful and glamourous thanks to Nick House Entertainment at the View party tonight 9pm-4am at Click, 84 Wardour St, W1, £12; or Saturday 10pm-3am at Elysium, 68 Regent St, W1, £15. Call 0870 2405436 by 3pm for guestlist quoting 'Urban Junkies'.

Why not be creative in the process? The Fashion and Textile museum, headed up by fashion guru Zandra Rhodes, has begun a Saturday knitting circle.

Before you say no, think about the perks. You'll have reason to stay sober (knitting with Zandra dahling), be forced to see the light of day and may even acquire that hobby you've been meaning to find.

Running from 1 to 5pm every other Saturday, the group is split into beginner and intermediate levels, with expert knitters on hand to help you when you drop a stitch.

And at £4 for entry to the museum and the course, that's probably just within your January budget.
