    He couldn't have made you do it, he was busy helping me do something else!

    If the Devil told you this thread was illegal he was acting ultra vires. Only the forum mods have that power, and the forum mods are jealous mods.

    many things are illegal but what is permitted is another matter

    it is whether or not you get caught

    What is legal is not always right, what is right is not always legal

    I wonder how many people flag this thread as being illegal. :D (No, I didn't, although I was really tempted. :D)

    It's not illegal, just immoral and fattening.

    Watching that song performed live by Charlie himself is fricking awesome, and I'm not even a country fan

    Are we absolutely certain it was the Devil? So many look-a-likes out there, just like Elvis impersonaters, especially this time of year. Heck, it might have even been his Not Quite That Evil Twin.devil

    I thought this was a thread about illegal use of knitting threads.

     

    The pattern for this scarf is another story too — which brings back other funny memories. It was a free pattern I found in a random knitter’s flickr photostream during one of my many unhappy days at my (former) 9-5 office job with eyes glazed in front of a computer screen. I spent many of those long days wishing I was home knitting and escaping by finding beautiful and inspiring knitting online to dream about.

    Well, as it turns out, the pattern was posted on flickr illegally and taken down shortly thereafter by the request of the original author who, despite lots of sleuthing, I have been unable to locate again. [ETA — the pattern has been found! See the notes at the end of the post for details] At that point, however, I had the pattern in hand (your partially-knitted fabric is the best pattern you can get!) and did little to worry about the fact that it had up and disappeared.

    Seeing the CDB in person is awesome. Really love it when they do that song in particular.

    And from that photo and maybe a tiny bit of trial and error, I'm sure I could copy it laugh

    I heard that if you bury a 3D printed model of an improperly clad Victoria at a crossroads you can summon a moderator.

    Yeah, but 10 years later a hellhound lightning strike will destroy all copies of all of your content and scenes.  And you.  Sorry...buried the lede there.

    a few months ago I threw all my 16 odd hardbound golden hands knitting and crochet encyclopaedias into the recycling bin.

    It had every aran and other stitch you couldthink of in it.

    Alas my hands get repetitive strain if I knit or crochet and since I stopped for good can do many other things I could not before and nobody else wanted them so out they went.

    Nobody wants old books anymore of any sort.

    I myself used to have thousands but got rid most of them.

    Thought having my own library was awesome but now we have Ebooks and less clutter.

    I certainly still read just electronically.

    You. Threw. Away. Books. If that isn't illegal it jolly well should be.
