Knitty Gritty

Great news for the public image of knitting: the DIY network is going to begin airing a knitting show, titled Knitty Gritty, and hosted by a member of the Austin Craft Mafia, specifically, Vickie Howell of Ruby Goes Retro.

Despite the near obligatory reminder that "this ain't your grandma's knitting show", I think that the producer actually get the idea, and that this won't be another stupid sop to "hip knitting" (such as R2, Rowan's horrific entry in this field).

I know that there are many forces at work in producing a TV show, so I'll try not to be disappointed if it's not my dream-show. But for now, all signs are positive, and my hopes are high.

Three cheers for cool knitters!
