Why is there something about knitting on a sewing blog???

Because it’s so freakin’ awesome! I’ve been playing with Portuguese knitting and I wanted to share the adventure. What makes Portuguese knitting so different is neither hand really holds the yarn, the yarn is tensioned around the neck and the stitch is made by a flick of the thumb. If you’re interested, check it out on my blog:
