Stitch n' Bitch fandom?

[emmagrant01]

Knitters -- any interest in a fandom knitting circle comm? There are lots of knitting groups out there, and there's even one for HP fen (hp_knitting), but I'm thinking of a different sort of place, where we could talk about knitting and fandom stuff, but with a... twist.

I'm thinking of a place where we could talk freely about fandom stuff of interest (smutty fic and art, the slash pairing du jour, the latest WIP that everyone's following, whatever), share patterns, have knitting challenges, and show off our latest projects. Sort of an "anything goes" knitting circle, I'm thinking. If you have ever thought of knitting something naughty (cock ring, anyone? felted handcuffs?), this would be the place to ask for help.

Any interest?

ETA: Crocheters too!

ETA 2: Okay, here we go: snb_fandom. Feel free to pimp!

Knitting circle and smut. So that's the definition of a circle jerk! ;')

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

LOL!

I am challenged when it comes to knitting, I have tried for years to learn and I can't, maybe this interest combination would help me to learn.
Eventhough, I haven't a clue on how to knit I will kill for a Weasley sweater! :) and also some of those naughty things you mention!

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

You could always exchange fic for knitting. Hmmm... There's an idea for an exchange!

[ex-ella-bane358.livejournal.com]

Yep. I checked out hp_knitting as well, but yeah, I'd feel much more comfortable with slashers.

Ha, an online Stitch n' Bitch. :) I'm interested. ♥

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Yes, exactly! *grins* I feel the same way about hp_knitting.

[zhonnika.livejournal.com]

Do crocheters and wannabe-knitters count? ;)

[yaycoffee.livejournal.com]

I was gonna ask the same thing. I'm a knitting retard, but I do pretend to crochet... and sometimes embroider.

[rolling-scone.livejournal.com]

Does one have to be knitting? couldn't there be chochetitoining - crocheting - qurotchet - I dunno how to spell it -_- but I couldn't knit to save my life.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

If there's yarn involved, it's all good. ;-)

[aiwefaile.livejournal.com]

Now that the edit has been put into effect.... ^_^ yes! None of my RL friends crochet, and i would love to meet more crazy folken to give me crazy ideas of things to make. Count me in!

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Cool! :-)

[karadin.livejournal.com]

I am new to HP fandom, and used to knit when I was small, I recently took a job as a designer in a crafts/fabric store and ogle the racks of yarn as I make planograms, I want to start up again, if there is a place where I could allow a few of my worlds to collide, fandometc. I would happily join, and er, get stuff at a discount too. (shameless bribe)

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Awesome! Come on over!

[tastyeyeliner.livejournal.com]

A community after my own heart......

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

We need more places to talk about slash and felting techniques, you know?

[fierydspsition.livejournal.com]

Most definitely interested. I actually own the second Stich N Bitch book too!

What would we call it? Stitch N Snitch? ::chuckles::

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

*grins* Well, I settled on Stitch 'n Bitch Fandom, heh.

[hearts-n-roses.livejournal.com]

YES!

Combining my two obsessions would be just lovely. In fact if it were a HP/Knitting/Rent community I'd never have to leave the internets again...lol.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Hey, it can be multifandom! Why not?

[dramedy.livejournal.com]

Sweeet.
I'm crocheting a scarf but...
I need to find bronze yarn :( do you know how hard that is?? ahh. anyway. Crochet, I do. I also can stitch, and I want to learn how to knit.
I vote Stitch and Slash. :)

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Bronze yarn? You mean the color bronze, or a metallic yarn?

[helens78]

Is this multifandom or just for HP? :)

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Multifandom, yeah -- with an emphasis on combining knitting and smut. ;-)

[ankhet.livejournal.com]

eeee! Yay! Complete fandom-centric knitting AND crocheting! I'm in heaven! (Yes, I'm a dork, but now I have a place to show off my HP crocheted scarfs and my Rent scarf....when I finish them.......)

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Come on over and show 'em off!

[cormallen.livejournal.com]

*very excited*
I won't pretend to be good at knitting (all I can knit are scarves. While I can make bitchin' scarves, that in itself isn't really "good at knitting"), but this sounds really fun.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Hey, if you can knit a scarf, you can knit other things. It's all about taking small steps toward more complicated things, I think. :-)

[thatzeppogirl.livejournal.com]

Brilliant idea! *adds comm to friends*

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

:-D

[eireinn.livejournal.com]

What a marvellous idea! *runs off to join*

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Yay!

[mania-regale.livejournal.com]

Me too, me too! Now that crocheting is allowed I'm all in!

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

W00t!!

[bant.livejournal.com]

Is thiss a Harry Potter knitting community or any fandom?

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Multi-fandom -- though the majority will propbably be HP. :-)

[hematite-dragon.livejournal.com]

yay! I was getting towards the end and was going to be very sad when there was no mention of crocheting, but there it was XD ♥

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Yes, crochet! My knowledge of that art is limited to a chain stitch, heh. :-P

[kerryblaze.livejournal.com]

I'm joining because I am learning to knit this winter! Asked my Mom for Stitch 'n Bitch for Christmas.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Yay! We'll make our first project something straightforward, like an HP scarf, then. I think there are several folks who are new to knitting. :-D

[fiona-fawkes.livejournal.com]

I like to stitch. And bitch. Excellent. *runs off to make a knitting icon*

[cephy.livejournal.com]

... how very appropriate. I'm in the middle of crocheting a Slytherin scarf.

XD

[joesther.livejournal.com]

OMG, what did you do? Read my mind or something? I just got back into knitting and I've been looking for a RL S'n'B to join in my city. This one won't replace it, obviously, but it'll be a great add-on. Terrific idea!! :)

[madeleneg.livejournal.com]

Wooh, loves knitting. I'm gonna join, for sure. :D

I'm knitting a handbag right now, yeah, handbag, not kidding. ;P It's a special wool, and after it's finish you wash it in the washing machine, and it turns out all fluffy, hehe, sort of.

[neotoma.livejournal.com]

Squeeeeeee!

Not that I've got anything done but my Ravenclaw scarf, but you'll probably get a lot of photos of my for-Mundanes projects too.
