I received my issue of the very first
Craft magazine in the mail today and I am really enjoying it. I only recently watched Project Runway Season 2 so I'm excited to read the interview with Diana Eng. And of course, I'm really flattered that the
knited wig was included in the Curio section. Thank you Craft. The magazine is so thick it'll take me a while to get through it, but I definitely recommend grabbing a copy.
p.s. The wig in the picture is a little different from the Knitty pattern, to create the flip at the bottom simply do a dozen or so rows of stockinette before you start the ribbing, and eye the overall length before you cast on the bangs.

We fried, we ate, we sort of regretted the eating. But the making sure was fun. We only got through three things before we had to call it and go on a long walk: mac and cheese, Twinkies and Snickers. You are warned that pictures of deep fried foods which are not meant to be deep fried do not look appetizing. Go see what I found out
here.

Design*sponge has opened the
design*sponge shop filled with lovely things, go take a look. And the shop is all sorts of goodness: the pieces offered are by emerging designers and are created just for the shop, all the proceeds from sales go to those designers, and 10% of the ad revenue goes to charity, a new one each cycle. This time I find myself liking the ceramic goods quite a lot.
