All Day Long

Love, love, love these images from Veronik Avery's upcoming book, Knitting 24/7. Even with the much-discussed "renaissance" of knitting, there still remains a dearth of patterns that are both interesting to knit and don't look like something my nana would wear. Veronik knows what's up.

Blue Bandit

Some more spring knitting. Sometimes I think knitting is the only thing keeping me sane, though truthfully I'm probably heading toward a sad future in which I suffocate under an avalanche of knitted oddities and am not found until days later in an eternal tangle of yarn.

"I know I survived the hard times by being obsessed," says Sonja Ahlers, and I'm inclined to agree.

Um... yeah. Happy spring!
