Help me name my knitting blog

November 20, 2014 12:32 PM

I have long wanted to start a knitting blog/website but need help naming it.

FWIW the blog is going to be following my cranky progression through projects, as well as tutorials, how-tos, patterns, etc. It won't be cutesy or anything. I may even curse from time to time.

What kinds of projects do you like to make? Are you a slow or fast knitter? Just to give us a little more to work with...

Response by poster: I like to make all kinds of things (mittens, socks, shawls, legwarmers, hats, etc). I am pretty fast at knitting. Really like stranded knitting and colour work.

Super simple: Stranded

Maybe a little more pop culture based: Step One: Knit Underpants

I'm kind of glad that you went in that direction because I'm pretty sure I want Step One: Knit Underpants for myself (even though I don't knit blog anymore).

I know that the decision has been made, but I love Yarned and Dangerous.

I'm seriously considering stealing Yarned and Dangerous for myself.

(S'okay. I don't see myself starting a knitting blog, just enjoying the ones you good people write.)

Well, I suppose calling it "Needle Exchange" would not be the hottest idea. Still...
