Calling All Knitters

Hello you knitting fanatics! Have you grown tired of making scarves for your second cousins? Perhaps you've given up on making those adorable booties for your baby, following that difficult pattern up to your third trimester and now that your children are off in college you see knitting as a long lost art you wish you could renew. Well, get out those knitting needles and be ready to be inspired!

You know this blog is about Chairs, right? Well, did you know that you could knit a chair? Yeah. Seriously!

A friend of ours is doing it. She is very crafty and wants to work on a chair and shared her idea of knitting a chair. At first, we were bewildered. And then she led us to this site and we simply must share it:
