My grandma taught me how to knit a scarf when I was little, but I forget how to do it now.
I checked out Stitch N' Bitch at first for the sweet designs, but stayed for the 3rd-wave feminist perspective. Unfortunately, though I've read the book and know the terminology (knit, purl, in-the-round etc.), I can't actually do any of it myself.
That's what my sister's for; "hey, make me this shit pronto!".
Like I said: feminism is a beautiful thing, non?

yup, definitely Stitch N' Bitch, my fave knitting book. from a fresh, feminist perspective too... do you two knit, or was it purely for the sake of exploring the pictures? And, Eric, I agree, number two has some awesome patterns too, I just don't think it's worth buying yet, until I've at least tried a few of the ones in the first one... you know, get my money's worth and all...

Those patterns are totally from the first volume of Stitch N' Bitch.
I should know; I've read it.

uh, Taylor, it's, um, yarn not gummy worms... that's the kind of nerd I am... While the rest of the world searches for porn or plays videogames online, I look at wool... even I know it's nerdy. but in a crafty diy sort of way, so I don't feel bad about it at all! Once I'm actually good at more than just scarves, I'll try out some of the fun patterns, like these...
because who wouldn't want a monkey bag? or a lightning bolt bikini?...
And How much rummy eggnog do you need to drink for this to sound like a great idea? A south Wales bus driver has spruced himself up for Christmas by having a mini fir tree woven into his hair.

Hey Tay, I'm seeing absolutely no animation from that thing, even on the massively under construction site. I've refreshed and everything. I'm running firefox, it's never had a problem with any other animated gif... it's odd
