Knitting Ninja

The needles for the Spiderweb capelet are quite large - both thick and long. When I pack my backpack in the mornings, my breakfast and lunch* containers are packed first, then my purple Knowknits.com knitting pouch sits on top. Since the needles are so huge, they poke out of the top of my bag. This morning, the boy looked at me on the streetcar, hugging my SnB Nation book, messy high pigtails, long straight skirt and jacket, and told me I looked like a Knitting Ninja.

I'm gonna draw me a picture of a Knitting Ninja one day.


* breakfast usually consists of some sort of cereal (bran buds recently, but can also be uncooked oatmeal) topped with frozen mixed berries, almonds and, sometimes, wheat germ. Today, lunch is a small bowl of brown rice, kidney beans and a mexican-spiced tomato sauce, plus a container filled with lettuces, some prepackaged broccoli coleslaw (sans dressing) and some broccoli sprouts. There's also a small jar of sundried tomato dressing.
