New Knitting Community
Get your asses over to ghettoknit:
We are a Red Heart affirming, washable garment loving, Susan Bates buying, "we don't need no stinkin' patterns" muttering, stitch'n'bitch fearing, acrylic adoring, and enterprising knitting/crocheting group.
I love wool yarn. But hey, if the baby is gonna puke on that baby blanket for three years, acrylic is washable. And cheap! Don't spoil the hard work those Peruvian women put into that beautiful hand sheared, hand spun, finger-painted wool yarn. Same goes for needles. Use whatever works for you. Some love wood, some love metal, and some love plastic.
Ghetto Knitting is all about choice. Maybe you like wool, maybe you like acrylic, maybe you swear by your Brittany needles or needles hand carved in Maine but decorated in Russia. Whoever you are, we want to hear all about you.
What do you knit? Why? How did you fix that hat that ended up being large enough to fit over a very large pumpkin? What is it about crocheting that makes your heart beat faster?
I'm probably forgetting something...but hey, that's what the 'edit info' link is for, right? Right now, the community is open for Introductions, Knitting stories, advice, questions, blahblahblah. More to come as need be.
