Vroom Vroom

I've been seeing a lot of knitting art where things like tanks and guns are made by knitting or are covered in knitting.

I wonder if this is something that is particularly "now" or if it's a trend with deep roots. Were people doing this the last time knitting had a peak? When was the last time knitting was so popular?

Anyhow, this stuff kinda makes me think of Beuys. Only, you know, inverted.

Kai: I can't find that tank you sent me.

Knitting for Psycopaths

Thanks, Glen.

Little Baby Dreadlock Hat

I made this hat by knitting a regular tube and then knitting several long rectangular locks off the top. I tied them all together and then felted the thing in the washing machine.

Baby Socks

I've gone back on a sock binge, I'm afraid. I'm working on one pair for Erik (not these) and I'm planning to make a slew of little baby socks for the not-yet-born wee one of Nina and Derrick. More pictures coming soon.
