Since the stock market is going down today, the recession is still not quite over and Bernancke has to start looking for ways to get rid of the money they overprinted without causing inflation. Thought this might be a great idea. Even thought I of course doubt, that they know how to knit. Oh and of course it's the time of the World Economics Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

I chose this photo because it reminds me of home and how we went sledding falling off the sled and then trying to pick off every little bit of snow stuck on the mittens. Or sometimes eating off the snow because we were too lazy to go home for something to drink.

Creativity ( female) Number Two - Knitting Art Picture of the Day (1-21-2010)

Creativity ( female) Number two, originally uploaded by scrappy annie.

This is the second, smaller version of my study of female creativity.
The circle refers to the creative as well as the reproductive cycle.
The background is knitting with interwoven threads. This is then covered with sheer fabrics, free machine stitched, and then burnt with a heat gun and soldering iron.
I like to tell women's stories by using women's crafts.

Little Knitted Football - Knitting Art Picture of the Day (1-14-2010)

Little Knitted Football, originally uploaded by nattyknitsclare.

"Knitted by me, from my pattern. But I've got questions...Is the colour right? Should it be darker? What about the stitching? Is there too much stitching or too little.

You see I'm British, I know it's supposed to look like a rugby ball other than that I'm lost."
