Wool ewe help me name my knitting blog?

Forget about all the nameless kittens and babies crying in vain for an identity. It's time to Name! That! Blog!
So I've come with an idea for a blog, and I would like a clever name for it. My idea is to launch a knitting blog (yeah, one of those) in which I review knitting patterns in a semi-serious, semi-pointing-and-laughing way, and post interesting knitting-related items. Interesting if you like knitting that is, because otherwise you'd probably rather enter a pickled herring eating contest. Knitting puns have been done to death, but I have such faith in the wit and creativity of the MeFi community that I'm sure you can come up with some brand new, wildly amusing pun.;-) And I have a name ready that would do to fall back on if you don't succeed.

in which I review knitting patterns
Pattern Recognition
... dammit, that one looks taken (though by a fashion blog rather than a knitting blog). Back to pickled herring for me.

Response by poster: The name that I had chosen was Paradigm Swifts, but The Knitting Needle and the Damage Done was so much more accessible, if less snappy to say, that I went with it. I don't know why I didn't think of it myself — I already used a variation of it to title one of my craft posts.
Thanks all!
And my new blog is here with a big two posts up already.
