Knitorious

One knits on the West Coast. One knits on the East Coast. Together, they have travelled across America with a gnome named Cupist, eaten Rice Krispy sculpture displays, and narrated the tales of Mothman and Carl and Momma Ukrop. Apart, they have slandered Jack Kerouac, thrown Peter Gabriel away in Cleveland, and re-written the gospel. Now, you can see for yourself how knitorious they really are.

What? A Blog Post?!

Yes. I finished a May-mester on Nietzsche with an A, began teaching my summer class (which went terribly today btw--my worst teaching EVER), and am KNITTING up a storm. Witness the glory.





I finally finished the tie for my dad! Okay, it's a late birthday present, but still. I probably should have rotated that photo, eh?

And check out the rug I knit for my kitchen!!




I got the pattern/idea from AlterKnits--it's old clothes that, for whatever reason, I couldn't give away. So I cut them up into strips, and knit them!! Whoa!! So, my rug was knit from, in order from top to bottom, a t-shirt that said "knit" on it that the washing machine tore up, a skirt that was stained, a donate blood t-shirt, a pair of jeans with an oil-based paint stain on the seat, a pair of khakis with tar on them, and a blue t-shirt that I wore as a scrub top. 

And as a bonus picture, this is my friend Stu eating leftover ribs from my birthday party, while standing in my kitchen and drinking chocolate coffee at 1 am, before continuing on his way to New Orleans.
