Yarn Whore

Okay, so I've been lost in the world of knitting blogs, searching for some good ones to link to this site. Those who know me, know that I'm a pretty hard core knitter. My poor roommates frequently have to step over tangled messes of yarn in the living room; the other night at the Tea Lounge I handed a skein to The Princess of Darkness and said, here, ball this. "I'm not going to ball your yarn! Who do you think I am?" Damn, I miss SmartyPants. And yes, on occasion, I have been known to go into the bathroom with the new PatternWorks Catalog and not emerge for quite some time. You may consider this my "yarn porn". So although I spend a lot of time knitting, I don't really blog about it much. And since I don't have a digital camera, and don't post many photos at all, I certainly am not able to post photos of my work.

But soon I will be moving closer to Stitch Therapy, a yarn store that is noteable for its chill owner, Maxine, who always remembers me. I also hope to join a Stitch N'Bitch in Prospect Heights, so knitting is on the brain.

Here are some good kntting blogs I have found. Now, here is what I like to see in a knitting blog: lots of photos, patterns, projects. Here's what I don't like: lots of photos of your cat/boyfriend, excessive chatting. If you think you know of a knitting blog I might enjoy, please send it along. In the mean time, enjoy Knitting Sunshine, Knitter Natter, Whispering Pine. Also, Knitty's new issue is devoted to men who knit. Hot.
