Boy, talk about words that totally infuriate me!

Both this country and Canada were made great by items knitted by people who had nothing better to do on Friday nights.

I call on all knitted items to rise up and defend those who knitted you!

This reminds me of the remark the Liberals made in January, before they lost the election,.......
that Canadian parents would spend their $100/month child allowance on beer and popcorn!

I bet Belinda wouldn't know a knitting needle from a crochet hook!

A recent picture of Ms. Belinda Stronach.

Conclusion: Liberalism is bad for you.

"Stick to your knitting" is an old business expression -- meaning to concentrate on your core businesses, and avoid senseless diversification. The fuss over MacKay's use of the expression was ridiculous.

I started knitting a year ago and I have met great friends many of whom are at the highest levels of business, education and medicine. I hate sexist remarks by women.

You're right, the Liberals are grasping at straws. The Globe and Mail, and Toronto Star can't even get their polls to work anymore. LOL!

Crafters, you might be interested what this person thinks of those of us who knit (and probably the other yarn arts as well...)

Yes, it hits home here, too. I just bought a knitting instruction book and hope to be knitting soon.

How fast can y'all knit muzzles and send them to her in the mail?

-----by the thousands, with directions for use.

We should knit her socks and tell her where to stuff them.

Seems to me the dogs are the ones entitled to the apology!

Thanks for the heads up! I just took up knitting in the last couple of years, (and I love it!), but anyone who knows me would think the idea of me staying home nights without a social life is completely laughable. Knitting most definitely does NOT mean that one is a social misfit or dweeb. LOLOLOLOL!

Maybe Belinda should take up knitting, and not Bill Clinton, as a pastime. It would be a lot more productive, and she might get the satisfaction of having something she made with her own two hands turn out really well.

Thanks for the ping, KAC! Long time no "talk" to.
