Okay, this is a fab campaign that Lindsay Lewchuk, hand knitwear designer and owner of "
Knit Eco Chic" designs started.
#wearyourknitting
How often do we knitters actually wear the items we knit? Anyone? Anyone? I would be the guilty looking knitter in the back of the room, trying to not make eye contact. I almost
never wear my projects. Usually, I only knit the prototypes for my patterns. I get all "wigged-out" about keeping the piece pristine for the "future traveling trunk show" of my designs.
Yeah, as if that will ever happen soon!
So, I'm boldly stepp'n out in my stitches! Here I am in my car, back from a quick run into the grocery store, sporting my new hat design. Fresh off the needles today. Not even charted or gone through the photo shoot yet. How brave is that?!? (Um, yes, it was on for only 15 minutes and I carefully set it back into its safe project bag after this shot. But it's a step for me! Right?)
Terrible pic, I know. Aren't selfies suppose to be? Meh.
So do you do it? Wear your knitting? Snap a pic and spread the word!
