Knitting is Tight

This is what one of my students declared the other day. He wasn't talking about tension or gauge, though, of course, sometimes knitting can be loose or tight. No, he was talking about the cool factor of knitting. The Online Slang Dictionary lists this as the first definition for the word tight: very good, excellent; COOL, HIP.

When applied to knitting, I must agree.

And here we go with our latest gallery.

A "very good" dishcloth.


A most "excellent" sweater.


A "hip" teddy bear.


A couple of "cool" hats.



More "very good" dishcloths.


A "hip" cell phone holder.


An "excellent" Steelers hat.


"Cool" Bunny.
