Knitting

Knitting is a method by which thread or yarn is turned into cloth or other fine crafts. Knitted fabric consists of consecutive rows of loops, called stitches. As each row progresses, a new loop is pulled through an existing loop. The active stitches are held on a needle until another loop can be passed through them. This process eventually results in a fabric, often used for garments.

Knitting may be done by hand or by machine. There exist numerous styles and methods of hand knitting.
Different yarns and knitting needles may be used to achieve different end products by giving the final piece a different colour, texture, weight, and/or integrity. Using needles of varying shape and thickness as well as different varieties of yarn can also change the effect.

So long, little fuglings.

So long, little fuglings.
As many of you may have guessed, PRK and I have decided to hang up our snark and go back to the outside world.

While we have had a lot of fun with this site, we also have a lot of other committments on our time and something had to go. When something meant to be fun starts to turn into a chore, it's time to call it quits.

We will miss all (well, most) of you and your comments. For everything I posted, there were always at least a couple of comments that were way funnier than anything I could have come up with.

We will leave the site up, so feel free to peruse the archives and if any of you want to take up the fugknit cause, put your web address in the comments for this posting.

So long, and may none of your knitting be worthy of this site.

Love and Kisses,
