Have any of you seen the PBS program called "Knitting Daily" and "Knit and Crochet"? These two programs are shown Mondays on PBS stations.

Yesterday, while I was on the "T", aka the subway here in Boston, I was furiously working along on a sock. Another man interrupted me to chat about my knitting.

Pattern Cabled Cowl from Lion Brand Yarn
Name: I decided to call this "Prorsum" (lat. "forward") as a kind of a wink to "Burberry Prorsum", since a lot of commercial cowls out there that I have seen and like are pretty much from Burberry.

30 Rock - Alec Baldwin - knitting

I'm sure many of you saw the live episode of 30 Rock this week. It was hilarious. I noticed right away in Jack's office a big basket of yarn and knitting needles right in the middle of his office.
