Squirrely knits

Recently I have seen some posts (at least on MAKE) that involved Knit Taggin' and The Tree Sweater. There seem to be quite the abundance of little old ladies out there thinking that the world is a little too cold and that everything needs to "Go and put your sweater on Dear." Okay, they are not really little old ladies, but that is still the image that comes to mind with knitting - I have really got to work on my stereo-typing :-) But I think that this is finally taking it a little too far: from Cute Overload. Side note: As of this past Friday - I have learned the very, very basics of how to knit. I am going to try and make a shawl for a worthy palliative care organization that gives shawls to patients in hospice. So far I have ripped it out three times and started over. I now have a lot more respect for those who can actually knit rather than tie knots in yarn with very large chopsticks. Technorati tag: knit taggin, squirrel sweater
