I knit. Lots. And design knitting patterns. Obsessed, really. (Also: genealogy, linguistics, SCA, and other general geekery. You have been warned.) She/her.

Inspired by some of the "crimes against the #fibreArts" images from @carriecraftgeek 's Livemas 3 today, I present:

"If media treated traditionally male activities with the same ignorance and lack of research as they do crafts; a thread:"

#knitting #crochet

1/5: Right craft, wrong equipment.

2/5: Right equipment, wrong craft.

3/5: Doing it wrong. So very, very wrong.

4/5: Key equipment missing.

5/5: Unrealistic depictions of how long things take.

Add your own! :)
