MC Chris at Knitting Factory
Extra Pepperoni (Free subscription) | 6 hours ago
I hadn't been to the Knitting Factory in years -- so long that in the interim, they closed that 'new' location and opened a Brooklyn venue instead. The openers were I Fight Dragons , who played 'real' instruments as well as various Nintendo controllers (beeping from the standard gamepads, as well as a Power Glove and Power Pad, and Rock Band guitar). The 5 men all wore superhero t-shirts, and the woman...

Lack of Knitting Content
Wendy Knits (Free subscription) | yesterday

I did start my second Diamond Lace sock — see? That’s what it looked like on Sunday, and that’s what it looks like today. But I ought to be able to return [...]

Mini Madness
Knit, Inc (Free subscription) | yesterday
OK, so I'm up off my death bed. Only just, mind you. I doubt I'll be running a marathon in the next while, but at least I can function again. And, I can knit again! Yay! It was horrible to be separated from my friend the knitting needle for so long. I felt bereft and empty. I found this pic on my camera of the Liberty Bell Afghan all parcelled up and ready to go in the house in Florida for my sister...

N e e d l e p r i n t (Free subscription) | yesterday
Saho Nogi, Editor of Needleprint Nihon, has written the following blog for us: When I was a child, my mother showed me a Sennin-bari and told me the story of the women who made the knots. I have always remembered it - and what it stands for. Sennin-bari is needlework which once existed in Japanese war history. Based upon the Shinto beliefs of Imperial Japan, it originates back to the Sino-Japanese...

Quite a Long Post on How Very Special Blogland Really Is....
A Bun Can Dance (Free subscription) | yesterday
Thank you for your support in my endeavours to be AT ONE with the wonkiness! Actually, I got so excited by the garland made for Emma, that I made a similar one for my niece's 21st Birthday with yet more RAW EDGES. There is LIBERATION in the wonky and raw and unfinished.... If, like me, you are a slave to the PRECISE then do have a go with the garland, or indeed any other creation which allows you to...
