We Rogues of Wool: it’s not just a shirt, it’s a sea shanty!

My friend Kerry sent me a link to a spiffy-looking shirt she found online. Look, a vulture! Riding a sheep! While knitting a scarf!!

We Rogues of Wool

I poked around, and found this on YouTube:

OMG, it’s not just a spiffy-looking shirt! This guy wrote a sea shanty about knitting! For his webcomic! Which apparently also recently featured the librarian rap battle of the century, for which there is yet another spiffy shirt. (Although I’m really tempted by the sweatshirt–I want to wear it while crunching through leaf-piles this fall.)

As a knitter and sometimes-librarian (when I’m not otherwise occupied with knitting and babymaking) who is also a huge fan of webcomics, I find all of this to be pretty head-explodingly fabulous. Chris Baldwin, you have definitely earned a place in my feed reader. <3

Thanks for the link, Kerry!

Hello, world! I’m obsessed with yarn!

Hello.  My name is Amelia.

I used to be a chronic spinster but lately I’ve become increasingly obsessed with knitting. Right now I’m working on a series of wool soakers for cloth diapering my impending child. (There is a bun in my nubile oven. A girly one. She’s due 10/18/08.)

Stay tuned for project notes, blabbering about patterns and yarn, and maybe even a rabbit or two.
