“Bake it So” Star Trek Oven Mitt

“Bake it So” Star Trek Oven Mitt

There’s really not much to say about this punny oven mitt. It speaks for itself, if you’re a Star Trek fan. It was made by Bethany of knitbyahenshop. But this isn’t the only geeky craft she’s made. Check out her list of the top 10 nerdiest crafts she has ever made. A close runner-up to this oven mitt for me is her take on the infamous swan dress that Björk wore to the 2001 Academy Awards.

The World’s Best Yarn Storage Idea

The World’s Best Yarn Storage Idea

When I saw the title of this blog post over on Knits for Life, I internally rolled my eyes. “The world’s best yarn storage idea? Right…” But after I saw the images … I kind of agree! I have balls and skeins of yarn in random boxes, bags, and drawers all over my house. This yarn storage idea is great because it’s attractive and functional. Storing yarn on a pegboard has some very big plusses: you see every single color of yarn that you own, you get a piece of awesome, ever-changing wall art, and it probably absorbs echo in the room, to boot.
