I like the guests, however, so I'm willing to put up with the guitar straps. I loved the knit beach chair!

I sort of felt like Vickie was doing an odd combination of A) trying too hard to make a show out of knitting, and B) trying not to seem like she didn't want to be there. She almost seems a little bit bored and, thus, sarcastic.<br /><br />Like another commenter, I love seeing the greats like Annie Modesitt, and bloggers who get to be knitsters or guest designers. I mean, it's still cool to be on TV! But KG is hard to watch for me.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08379732813880083676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22316201.post-15874248519110547872007-02-05T21:25:00.000-06:002007-02-05T21:25:00.000-06:00I agree with you about knitty gritty completely, t...I agree with you about knitty gritty completely, they have yet to knit something i would want to make. When they are doing something i am interested in it last 2 minutes and the projects seem useless to me. I think I would rather watch the knitters and the guests and let Vickie go to lunch lolsweethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570416643491159452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22316201.post-3172036588955253732007-02-05T18:38:00.000-06:002007-02-05T18:38:00.000-06:00I agree with your comments on the show.

I do like seeing peolpe like Annie modisett "in person" and some of the tips I pick up, but Vickie irriates me! I can't wait to see tubey. Have fun!

I ...I have very mixed feelings about Knitty Gritty. I tape it since I'm usually working when it's on too. I happen to love Vicki's hair, but I do find her very irritating to watch. I don't think it's the uber-hipness, but there's just something about the way she hands over the samples and the questions she asks the guests that irritates me. The Knit Bits are too corny, but she doesn't bother me as much in them. I just love the fact that there is a knitting show and I've liked some of the projects. But most of the stuff is really basic or it's covered so quickly you really couldn't learn it from watching the show. Maybe that's just the nature of knitting and a 20 minute show (without the commercial breaks).reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231399856625169656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22316201.post-29942229146606177982007-02-05T16:00:00.000-06:002007-02-05T16:00:00.000-06:00I haven't knit Tubey, but I'd like to.

I sort of stopped watching it last season because I do not need either (a) a knitted bikini or (b) a guitar strap. But I have recorded some of the episodes from this season because of the appearance of people from blogland.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17109910521429088196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22316201.post-79306207582975638682007-02-05T15:25:00.001-06:002007-02-05T15:25:00.001-06:00PS - A 4 year old with bed head has a better looki...PS - A 4 year old with bed head has a better looking 'do.sheep#100https://www.blogger.com/profile/04207640881710412597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22316201.post-62029155642993762512007-02-05T15:25:00.000-06:002007-02-05T15:25:00.000-06:00No, Vickie isn't allowed to carry your knitting ba...No, Vickie isn't allowed to carry <i>your</i> knitting bag. I tried today to watch part of an episode because it was labeled New and I happened to have the morning off. I was ready to gag. What grown ups host a pah-jam-uh party and knit café curtains?!<br />The knitsters all wore warm flannel pink pjs but Vickie's were fancy schmancy black and gold - ooh, she must be so cool, right?<br /><br />Knot.sheep#100https://www.blogger.com/profile/04207640881710412597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22316201.post-13223437368221894992007-02-05T14:42:00.000-06:002007-02-05T14:42:00.000-06:00I agree with you on "Knitty Gritty".

I haven't knit Tubey, so you're not the last one. I watched the first few Knitty Gritty shows but they changed it to weird hours.
