Men Who Knit Promoting and inspiring the art of knitting amongst men.

It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

It was foretold anyway, when I was knitting for all of the other babies earlier in the year...

My sister made me an uncle again with a 8lb, 19 inch boy.

I, said the sheep with curly horn,
I gave him my wool for a blanket warm.
He wore my coat on Christmas morn.
I, said the sheep with curly horn.

- from "The Friendly Beasts" a French carol.

I shed enough tears and finally dried my eyes and added my voice to the mix.

* My brother's wife just gave birth.
* My second cousin just gave birth.
* My friend from grade school will be giving birth in a few months.

It's been a year.

...and I still miss Jason.

We've got a ways to go, but, we've come a LONG way since.

For today: let's remember Stonewall.

Happy Pride, folks!

...called "Unventions"
