Lately, I came upon another knitting librarian blogger (via LIS Blogsource) and got to thinking about how many of us there are. This thinking led to some searching, which in turn led to this list, which is not at all exhaustive, and which I encourage you to append to in the comments:
- Black Sheep
- Cavalier Stitches
- Crafty Librarian
- Detroit Diva
- Hairball
- Knit with Me
- Knitnick’s Studio
- Knitting from Outer Space
- KnittinK
- Librarian Knits
- Step into My Thimble
- The Knitting Revolutionary
- when usually it’s nothing
- Yarn Lust (who has a lovely guide to knitting Web rings on her site)
My hope is that these brilliant and arresting links will distract you from that other thing, of which I cannot speak, for I am heartsick.
Thanks for the distraction (get ready for a mass immigration of dems to canada). I’ll have to check out these other knitty librarian blogs to get my mind off of the “other thing”. I have another one to add to your list: Lolly knitting around: http://lollyknitting.blogspot.com/
She is not quite a librarian yet, but in library school, and also works in a libary. She’s even made are really cute “knitibrarian” button
TangognaT is/was a knitter. So’s yoko.
Yep, she’s linking to the knitting blog I spun off (hee) from my main one
Several of my friends are librarians and knitters, but few blog about knitting. My friend Peth, who is not a professional librarian but works in a library, does occasionally write about knitting and library stuff.
Wow! So many of you!
Rip It Out
Some levity: Gangsta knitter video. (link via TangognaT’s KnittinK blog) We are everywhere: Knitting librarian bloggers. Add your name to the list if you desire. And this weekend: hott diner action. Maybe a stitch-n-bitch. Sooner can be my president any

i’m a knitting librarian! my blog is in flux right now – going to move it from http://www.librarygrrrl.net/wordpress to http://www.librarygrrrl.net/.
Like the new colours!
why isn’t there a webring for ugly chicks that knit ? that seems like a pretty common affiction in the knitting community
i meant affliction
well, that’s not very nice, mega. let’s keep our comments constructive, shall we?
Does it count if you don’t work in libraries anymore? I worked as a research/business librarian for years – even did a (short!) stint in the library at People Magazine. Worst job ever. Now I’m a writer, photographer, and of course, knitter. But, once a librarian, always a librarian right? Interesting list. Thanks.
