Knit Like A Pirate

As everyone reading this surely knows, this Saturday is Talk Like a Pirate Day. Well, maybe not everyone knows, but I knew and I’m excited. And I was even more pleased when I spotted these knitters in my Twitter feed today. They seem to celebrate the buccaneering lifestyle year round, and add the element of yarn. Good on ye, maties!
From the Knit Like a Pirate website:

We focus on knittin’ and stitched items with a buccaneerin’ theme. There be a notable lack of entertainment on the high seas, and we’ve taken up the crafts of our fore-sailors: knot-tyin’ and sailmakin’.

They’ve got free patterns and a gallery of projects, too:

• Tricorn Hat
• Shipping Green Water Mittens
• Rogues Gallery
