Hi guys,

Just thought id share some knitting graffiti with you all...

KNIT THE CITY have been wrapping london in wholly goodness this year.  There are 7 members from all over london, who were all dragged into the Knit the city bunker and taught the way of the yarnstorm through gruelling tests and trials.  You can follow them on twitter (@knitthecity) and here is their site: 
Knitthecity.com 

Most of the yarn corps also have their own sites too:

Nothing at all to do with me

Hi guys,

I bought a mini torch a few years back (2006) as part of a kit.  I used it a few times and it worked perfectly... however i went travelling and packed it all up.  I came back this year and ive tried to use it again. It ignited a few times - with perserverance and only had a small flame no matter how much gas i turned on.  Now ive come back to it after a few months and it wont ignite. 

 Its full of gas and ive tried squirting a few drops of gas directly into the nozzle to try to clear anything that may be there.  Do i just have to bite the bullet and buy a new one?  I really hope i can salvage it!  Many thanks in advance.  x

Hi, i live in the east part of tokyo - on the tozai line and a few of us here have set up a stitch and bitch if you are interested - we meet every friday night.  Cheers 

You are very talented... im hoping that you are selling stuff as your talent should not go to waste, well done, marilyn im sure is loving your work from up high!

happy crafting 

This is awesome, you did a great job    And i agree, a blue cupcake sounds great for a boy!  

If you are thinking of knitting the beads in - its actually a lot simpler than it sounds and theres a project to make a small purse in the stitch and bitch books - sorry cant remember which one it is, but its really well described- and very fun!

keep up the good crafting  

Hi, have pmd you 

ah thanks 

Wow ....these are quite cool. did you draw them with coloured pencils cause they're great. i think i see a budding artist emerging=]

Thanks, yes i did, coloured pencils and glitter!  I love glitter glue  but in fact most sparkly things i love too    and thanks again for all the lovely comments.   Ive been dabbling just a little in the coloured pencil region, usually my stuff is 3D - i make costumes for a living, so its  kind of a new medium for me

thanks guys, i only had sparkly thread which can be a bit of a pain to sew with (as im sure you know!) and so took me a while!  glad you like him
