Apologies, I don’t usually include RL stuff but for what it’s worth I know for a FACT that Kitty would have died laughing.  On the spot.  As you all know, one of the best things about SL is the array of styles and clothes and every look that you have ever yearned can be created in the blink of an eye…I can’t say I ever do ‘REAL’ punk, as to me that involves spitting, cheap beer, pogo-ing, tartan and spots..as well as Sex Pistols, X-Ray Spex, Alien Sex Fiend..( Yes, we’re talking proper punk here) Punk was a movement that inspired generations, and I know that the US has had it’s own Punk agenda in recent years..but that’s more of a revival.  Punk was Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious..Punk was Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm Mclaren opening a shop called ‘SEX’. Punk was dirt and grime and a restless youth in 70’s Britain. 

Punk was anarchy.

It is NOT knitting.

SO..imagine my suprise when I saw the following book on the shop shelves in Waterstones.  I was going to take a snapshot and post it on here but to be honest I refuse…I almost coughed up my spleen laughing in the shop.  This is just absurd. I don’t care how popular Knitting is ( Julia Roberts fave hobby apparently) you do NOT desecrate a moment in history in this way…..http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h_/202-8795984-1560658?initialSearch=1&url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=punk+knits

If you listen carefully you can almost hear Sid and Nancy turning in their graves…
