Knitted Converse Sneakers Let Your Inner Geek Come Out To Play
If you took all the geeky high heels, gamer shoes and Converse sneakers we've written about over the years and put them all into one shoe store, it would be my dream come true. I've had the privilege of writing about the geekiest, most unique shoes ever, and now when I look at a pair of ordinary sho ...
The Knitted Turkey Hat: Thanksgiving Isn’t Complete Without It
It's so funny how a little knitted hat can make a person's day, and this one just made mine. I read on Green Head that we have witch's hats for Halloween and a Santa hat for Christmas, but what about a Thanksgiving hat? I have to agree, we need a hat for that day, so I present to you the turkey hat. ...
Be A Superhero: DIY Retro Wonder Woman Sweater
Wonder Woman is such a badass chick, and there's no question she's the best superhero of them all, at least to me. Whenever I see Wonder Woman inspired designs, they always catch my attention. I even picked out my swimsuit for next summer (which is here on Etsy), and yes, it's Wonder Woman flavored. ...

Finally! Crocheted Vulcan Ears To Cover Our Lame Human Ears
A few months ago, Richard wrote about a knitted Spock hat with Spock ears added to the side. That was nice and all, but it seems much more logical to simply transform our ears into Spock ears, doesn't it? Who needs the hat attached? I mean, Spock doesn't wear a hat. #justsayin
Inspired by all the ...
Design Inspiration: 10 Warm & Fuzzy Knitted Muppet Hats
I grew up watching Miss Piggy on television, and to this day, I think she's so much fun. I got to see her in person back in October. I'm not ashamed to say I was right there with all the little kids cheering when she came out on stage at an event in Atlanta. Here on Bit Rebels, we've written about M ...

These little pinecones are wickedly cool.

Cozy Vacation: Stay In This Colorfully Crocheted Hotel Room
Years ago, whenever we thought of knitting or crocheting, we probably thought of little old ladies sitting in rocking chairs with metal knitting needles. However, those days are long gone, and these days even the cool kids on the block are crocheting. Some of the crocheted designs we've featured are ...
Your Daily Cute: Get Schooled By Some Needle Felted Owls
Needle felting is becoming more and more popular, and looking at these little owls, I can see why. These are definitely the cutest little things I've seen all week.

10 Crazy Creepy Crocheted Masks
I remember back in the spring I wrote about a website called Brutal Knitting dedicated to very scary and creepy knitted masks and hats by designer Tracy Widdess. I don't know if it's Tracy who actually gets the credit for coming up with such a creative idea, but it seems there is another artist on t ...
Cute Crocheted Craft: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
A few years ago, crocheting, knitting and needle felting were thought of as hobbies for grandmas. We didn't hear much about trendy designs created this way, and surely no hipster or geek would be caught dead with a pair of knitting needles. However, all of that has changed now, and these styles of c ...
Brutal Knitting: Don’t Mess With This Yarn
I don't think I've ever seen the words brutal and knitting in the same sentence before. When I think of knitting, I think of sweet grandmas who carry around a little bag with different colors of yarn and knitting needles. I don't usually think of scary masks that might give me nightmares.
This wo ...
Yarn Ferrari: Carefully Knitted Using 12 Miles Of Yarn
It's easy to get mesmerized by the splendor of sports cars. I don't think I am exaggerating when I say that pretty much every little kid at some point says to themselves that one day they will own a sports car to impress everyone. As we grow older, we start thinking that a sports car might impress t ...
