  • At first glance, I thought the title was "Make Your Own Killing Needles", and I thought, "Cool! Something I can actually use!" Then I saw it said "knitting". Crap.

  • The best part about this?

    When the TSA throw a hissy fit and confiscate your knitting needles as weapons of mass destruction, you can just make your own on the plane out of government-approved wooden dowels, a pencil sharpener and a piece of sandpaper.
