My sister-in-law is a master knitter; knitting beautifully, designing patterns and teaching. Plus, she is just a beautiful person. Yesterday she sent me the link to this video, which combines knitting with the humor of Stephen Colbert - what's not to love!
The article below talks about how Krysten Ritter got into knitting as an adult, after having learned as a child. The kit she is promoting in this article is crazy expensive, but she is delightful. Now I'm curious about other celebrity knitters!
