My hitherto resistance to the call of the blogosphere leaves me amazed that I'm about to contribute to it. Previously, I was of the "who cares" opinion - I mean, why would anyone want to read the random ramblings of someone they don't know? But then I stumbled upon Eunny Jang's blog, See Eunny Knit. It was my gateway blog. Such well-written musings, clear and instructive posts and simply amazing knitting couldn't be bad, right? Right... the topical blog, interesting to those fans of a specific topic. It's all so clear now. And so my turn to the dark side was complete. Soon I realized that knitting blogs could provide useful information about a pattern I was knitting or considering. Knitters posted pictures, rants about crappy patterns (helpful to read before starting said crap) or just plain presented what they were working on. I felt inspired. And I felt obliged to do my part. This community and amazing online resource only continue to grow if we feed it. So here's some cake. Or pie - it's better for you.
This blog will mostly cover my current knitting endeavors and their associated obsessions, fits of anger and/or swells of gratification. I imagine that knitting-related musings that aren't really appropriate for my Examiner.com page will also land here. I'll try to take quality pictures with my dinky camera and see how that goes. And, eventually, I may post patterns and links to other fabulous blogs. For now, baby steps.
