Would Buffy knit socks?!

"What would Buffy knit?

All those pointy sticks she plays with — you can't tell me Buffy's not a knitter. The question is, what does she really, really want to make? You've got until 30 June to design something for everybody's favourite vampire slayer."

Take a look at the purlescence storytellers blog which emerged from a competition that ran on the purlescence site where you were asked to design a knitting pattern for a variety of different storybook characters, (I never got a chance to participate, though I would have loved to have designed something that Alice in Wonderland might knit, something weird and wonderful I imagine!)

Now they are asking you to design a project that Buffy, yes Buffy, might knit!! It's got to be something totally gothic don't you agree, lace? in black, with a silvery hue? ... ah you've found me out, I'm a closet Buffy fan, well really I'm a closet Angel fan, but Buffy's pretty good too! I'm off to dream up the kind of knitting project a slayer might find the time for! It would have to be on double-points, that way she could slay two unsuspecting vampires with either end of one of her bamboos!
