Yes, this truly is psychotic knitting. Kinda funny, yet sick...read more about it here.


This pink gun cozy is just hilarious. Check out the blog I found it on, and read the comments. You'll die laughing. :)

Knitted machine gun (found this pic on flickr). That tip looks a little flimsy there, don't you think?

Knitted guns (you talkin' to me? what?!? what was that?? yeah, i thought so...) ;)
Last but not least, wear this while holding your knitted guns. Knitted gas mask (nonfunctional) for cool looks ;)

Pitti Filati 2008

Image source: Foamy-GFX


Thanks to Berroco KnitBits newsletter, I was able to view fantastic images of this year's Pitti Filati in Florence, Italy. How I wish I could have visited this exhibition to view these amazing designs. The theme was nature inspired: here is a short video of some amazing knitted sea creatures. Have you ever been inspired by sea life? Did you ever wonder what a knitted jelly fish actually looks like? Now you can, and you can create it too, for free! Thank you Norah Gaughan! This is spectacular and strange in the best ways.
