This week’s movie was a reader suggestion. Edge of Loveis the semi-true story of the two (main) women in poet Dylan Thomas’ lecherous life. Although I wasn’t a huge fan of the script, the art direction and costumes were fantastic! Here are just a few of the great knits that made appearances in the flick.
Sienna Miller as “Caitlin”, wearing a Cabled & Ribbon Flower Cardigan
Keira Knightley as “Vera” in a Angled Rib, Collared Pullover
I must tell you since seeing movie Monday posts i have been keeping my eyes wide open (more so) when I watch movies and you must check out city of ember! Yarn covered apartment!
Vickie, a close look at that baby blanket, the one you thought could be tunisian? I did a super close zoom and it looks, straight up, woven with yarn! Really awesome looking.
Movie Monday, a fun idea! Thanks!!

Dear community,
The majority share of the knitting, crochet, and crafts industries, and the community that supports them, are women and non-binary folk with uteruses. After yesterday's devastating supreme court decision, essentially removing women's constitutional rights over our own bodies, need to support one another. We need to love each other enough to not give up. I see you. My heart is with you.
Yesterday, I was fortunate enough to be on a Zoom action-meeting run by a major women's healthcare organization. We feel powerless, but one of the suggestions they gave for things we can do is to donate to grass-root organizations that focus on women's healthcare clinics.

That puts a big ‘ol smile on my face, knowing that. 🙂
Oh, and I did do a post on City of Ember. You’re right, LOADS of knitwear in that one!

It’s amazing what is seen when we take the time to really see.
Thanks for the review.

I love the hat that Bella wore in Twilight while at the beach. I would love to make a hat like that.
good job 🙂
