It’s not often that I upload image heavy blog entries (blinking SA bandwidth being what it is) but with Christmas round the corner I thought everyone deserved a treat. I remembered an exciting book (gift ideas you see) that I once borrowed from my friend Heidi. Now, I’ve heard the joy of giving is that much greater if you’ve put a lot of effort into the gift. Imagine the overwhelming giving-satisfaction if you’ve gone to the trouble of actually making something with your own bare hand? So, here are some stunning Christmas idea’s that I know will just blow your socks off. To entice you to read further I’ll even give you the title of the book …. Wild Knitting.
WTF!! Knitting, so help me Christmas, has never, ever been a wild activity.
With all the bad publicity that furs get, PETA will be glad to know that the best big thing in warm-wear isn't mink at all. No, no, it's armadillo. Crusty, you might be thinking. Ah ha, but not if it's knitted...

This devastatingly sexy, knitted (strike 1) jumpsuit (strike 2) will be just the jolly thing to get everyone in the festive mood...you know, laughing, cheering, laughing...
For all those flat-dwellers out there who long for their own little patch of garden... A fully knitted garden! The bricks are especially practical. No lugging heavy decor-paving around, no siree. No watering required either, just a quick hoover every now and then (plastic flowers optional).
And, if you're looking for something stylish and unique for a table setting... knitted fruit!
Been wondering how you'll keep your fine form over the festive season? The solution lies before you...knitted ice-creams. An added bonus is that it could quite possibly double up as a teeth-cleaning exercise (think floss and fuzzy type of toothbrush).
... no melting in the sun either...
What could be more fetching than a knitted bikini? Not only that, but imagine ...
a) how well this weathers in the water; and
b) how it must itch the living hell out of your private parts. As if beach sand wasn't enough.
When Emirates Airlines gets a hold of this image, by jove they will change their air hostess uniforms! These are made especially nice by the wonderful, romantic light that has made the images all furry. No wait, that's a lint halo. Strike 1..Pastels. Strike 2..bingo wing sleeves
It's not so much about the outfits as it is about the whole picture. Knitwear on the beach? Must be Brighton. The stylist took an especially long time to style the lady on the right's hair. At a second glance, she must have taken equally as long on the other woman's hair.
Is the man in your life an outdoorsy type? Show him you love him by knitting him a pastoral pully. The ensamble would not be complete without the bobble hat to round off the theme. Note the blue (sky) with white (clouds) and yellow pompom (sun). Take me to bed baby...
For those out there who needed a closeup of the design...
Finding the perfect office Christmas party dress is always such a bind. Look no further. Not only that, but if you look carefully you'll see the fake, knitted cigarette in her hand. Getting in early on those New Years resolutions we are ... (NOTE: the foldover boob is not included in the pattern.)
Last, but by no means least, some very cunning fancy dress ideas for that New Year's eve party you always have to dicky yourself up for. These are totally re-usable anytime, anywhere...You know, kike that 70's theme bridesmaid dress you'e been able to wear over and
over and over again.
