KNIT KNIT
SUNDAY DECEMBER 1 @ 3pm (NEW DAY & TIME!!)
We're proud to be hosting Sabrina Gschwandtner of KnitKnit magazine
she has a new book out this fall, KnitKnit: Profiles + Projects from
Knitting's New Wave. Join us for a discussion and demonstration. The
book profiles 27 of the most talented artist-crafters knitting today.
All over North America and Europe, a brand-new generation has taken up
knitting and is transforming the venerable needlecraft by blurring the
     boundary between craft and art. In Copenhagen, Denmark, Isabel
Berglund hand-knit an entire room. In New England, Dave Cole
constructed an enormous knitting machine (he used excavators and
utility poles) that knit an 800-stitch, 35-by-20-foot American flag.
But the projects aren?t all of a monumental scale. In Los Angeles,
Bridget Marrin knits little dollhouses complete with lawns, shrubbery,
and smoke-filled chimneys, all made of yarn. Using surgical wire,
Indiana-based knitter Althea Merback hand-knits sweaters smaller than
a dime.

SUPPORT OUR FRIENDS! THEY DO FUN THINGS!
Prisonbooks meets every Sunday at 1pm.
