Subdeacon Joe Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 https://mysticalraven.com/art/16342/knits-her-own-fence Quote Anne loves lace knitting, and how better to express that affection than by completely wrapping one’s garden up in Shetland lace? The fence is fashioned from strong black twine (the same kind that is used to make fishing nets) and Anne knitted it up on specially adapted curtain poles. It took her about three weeks to knit enough lace to surround her front garden, using a 23 stitch repeat of a familiar Shetland lace pattern.

Trailrider #896 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Wow! Neat. If you gave her enough steel wool, could she knit a stove? Or a suit of armor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that back in the 60s, in a Donald Duck comic book. Granny Beagle (that's her in the middle) had knitted the Beagle Boys bulletproof vests out of steel wool.
