The KNIFTAs

In an especially brilliant move, I Knit London decided in a fit of rage over bad knitting scenes in film and television (see their Campaign for Real Knitting) to stage and host their very own KNIFTA (Knitting in Film and Television Awards) ceremony! Pictures from the event can be found here, and the list of award winners is here.


The five categories were:
Funniest knitting/crochet scene
Best knitting/crochet scene
Best knitwear
Best advertisement
Outstanding Contribution to Knitting in Film and Television
(to see the nominees and winners in each category, see link above)

I'm hoping that this awards ceremony will be replicated in the future--very funny!!
Enjoy!

First Meeting of the Semester






Hello everyone,

I hope you all had a really great semester. I just wanted to let you all know that our first meeting of the semester will be on Jan 20, the second week of school, NOT the first week. This is because I want to make sure that all of you can get used to your classes and such before we start meeting. Also, when we get to the first meeting, Katie and Abby will have a bit of a schedule worked out for you as well as some knitting and crocheting lessons ready!

Hope to see you all on Tues, Jan 20 at 7pm in the Atrium right outside of Starbucks on the couches around a TV.

--
Happy Stitching!
