I'm having a complete FAIL on the adding picture front today. It just won't go in this blog entry. However, this week's blog review is…
The Art of Darkness
It's not loaded with knitting, but if you're into all things creepy, kooky, mysterious and spooky - or if you know someone who is - you'll love this blog. Blog owner 'Cobwebs' updates it frequently, finding the best of things you can make or buy for the dark-at-heart and bringing them all into one place. In the Categories section in the left-hand column you'll find sections such as Paint It Black (all about adapting things to give them a spooky feel) and Bittens (spooky things for kids). Click on 'Doom It Yourself' to see things to make. If you're interested only in gloomy knitting projects, the best thing to do is type 'knit' into the seach box at the top-right of the page, although you'll be missing out on a treasure trove of non-knitting fun if you do!
The Art of Darkness isn't a site you go to to read about what the author has been making or how she finds using certain crafting items, and it's not full of laugh-out-loud anecdotes. Rather it's a blog that will inspire you to go away and make something of your own, perhaps something you'd never even thought of making before.
