Calendar boyz are almost here …

Well, it’s getting close to that time of year and I’m pleased to say that the calendars are almost ready! It was a huge learning curve from last year and I think they’re even better this year. I know the entire process was a little easier anyway! So I did a shoot with Bruce last night and here are a few pics to show you what’s in store … The model above is Bruce – don’t you want to see him nekkid! 😉 He’s January 2013 and a great way to start off your year. I have to say […]

It’s Calendar Time again …

It’s that time of year again! Seeing as the end of the world hasn’t yet started, I’m thinking it’s safe to say there will be a 2013. Yes, I know the year isn’t over yet, but seeing as I’ve heard dates ranging throughout the entire year as the end of the world, I’m going to take my chance! That being said, I’m putting the finishing touches on the next It Takes balls To Knit … Scarves Calendar for 2013! There are a few changes for the next calendar though. The biggest change will be that ALL the models will […]

The Constantly Changing Scarf …

You might remember a couple of posts ago when I talked about a scarf I was working on. Here’s the link if you don’t – SCARF. In the post I had mentioned that I had three balls of yarn – Merisoft Hand Paint – in the same colorway but two different dye lots.

Due to a few different things, I decided to frog that and […]

Heart matters …

If you’ve gotten your calendar, you’ll see a very interesting scarf in September. It’s a shadow knit scarf and from the angles it was shot at you should be able to make out the shape of a heart quite easily. If you could factor in for the distortion, it would be an exact replica of the logo for HEART-ART, Lara West’s company and website. Lara was even thoughtful enough to paint her toenails pink for the shoot. If you remember a post a little while back, you’ll have an idea of how we get the image of the heart […]

December is here …

Yes, it’s December already … with Christmas just around the corner. As it turns out, December is not just a great month in reality, it’s a great month for the calendar as well. To begin with, December appears in the calendar twice – this year and next. And what better way to start your calendar viewing and end the year than with Dino! As you can see Dino is one of those ruggedly handsome en who just happens to also be an exceptional bass player! If you’re ever in the area of one of his performances, you should do […]
