Which just proves 2 things, 1. That creatives and astronauts get along quite well, and 2. Astronauts love twitter (well I can’t really say that this proves it, but following both NASA and NASA_Astronauts on twitter will certainly prove it)
Speaking of astronauts, I was thinking of making a shuttle-styled wine bottle bag to gift some family members much more aeronautically inclined than myself. What do you think?
Taking inspiration from the Crochet Me newsletter, might I recommend making gifts from Crocheted Gifts this season? http://bit.ly/1yAXgf
So… I just had to put this up, because not only is there a sample of the book on Scribd.com but it’s also a brand new gift book from Kim Werker. You have to love her designs.
I have to agree with sister Diane…and I do believe a granny square afghan is on my “to do for christmas” list
P.S. Raise your hand if you love the colors!! I know my hand is up.
Another addition to the daily blog route. Okay, I’m making a blog page for easy access to links. Now I just have to find out how Lars has the “last updated” on his blogroll…
I had to post this because a- I love the stories about non-knitting/spinning/crocheters that have the best comments about what you’re doing and b- I wanted to put up a definition that I’ve learned rather recently. (Crocheters- don’t feel left out! Go post your stories too!!)
Muggle (n)- A person who is uninitiated to the mysteries surrounding yarn and the love there of.
Origin: J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter books, the word originally meant the non-magical characters.
Had to post this because between the sock summit and this, I am rather jealous of the west-coasters right now. So please, if you’re in the area, check it out! (I wonder; are there are people who traverse the globe going from awesome craft-fair to sheep festival to knitting guild?)
KnitsforNeeds:As well as accepting pretty much any & all knit/crocheted items, KFN is currently in need of men’s items, especially men’s hats.
The only thing I regret about being so busy with my blog sometimes is that I really don’t have anymore time to make charity items. But maybe I can do a themed free pattern next week? Okay, I’m putting up my first poll, but you guys have to participate. Should I put up a charity themed men’s hat project next Thursday??? Oh, and second question -should I run the theme for 2 weeks, one a crocheted hat and one knit?
