Awesome! I was wondering what you had planned and this is great :) I wonder any kids today would even understand what this is...ah, I'm old. And I wonder if there is a 21st c replacement for this type of an attack...
I was planning to finish some knitting I started last night, then decided to check your blog, ha ha ha, how perfect. I'm thinking I want to now add something slightly macabre into my knitted piece. hmmmm.
there have been many times i've thought poking out my eyes would be more enjoyable than the situation i am in (at the time). and being a knitter, i've always got weapons with which to poke...
hmm. is it wrong that I'm thinking you could do better with a different yarn choice? It's fun, but there's not much texture going on. Maybe I'm just approaching this too seriously from a knitter's perspective. Besides, what did that sock yarn ever do to you? It's 'Fun Fur' that deserves to die.
I'll be sure to have a copy of this photo with me the next time I bring my knitting through airport security... (US airports let you bring knitting needles on board; other airports don't!)
This is brilliant. I love that the yarn portrays a solid and a liquid--that makes it much more interesting than just the anthropomorphic horror/humor. I will never consider the texture of a yarn quite the same way after this.
Hooray!! It's perfect, especially the pool of blood. Of course, now I'm going to feel guilty the next time I knit thinking that the yarn is suffering horribly.
You'll be making the rounds on the knitting blogs and Ravelry (a whole knitting community) very shortly. Beware, the traffic of knitters will be upon you. :)
As a knitting and a lover of your work... this one is fantastic. We are always getting stabbed by random knitting needles around my house. Usually they are stuck in the couch.
Oh boy.. it is fun to see my Rhett and Link and Knitting groups collide in the comments! woo hoo! hehehe Yes I am the evil one who engineered this convergence! mwah ahahhahaha
I have two needles.. you have two eyes.. never mess with a knitter.... Denise knitchat.com AKA the eHermitess
My first stab at a knitting needles idea.

This certainly plays on the threat that many knitters say! Nice level of graphicness without being over the top gross.
Oh my god that's hysterical. I almost choked on my breakfast.
Never mess with a knitter.
What a bloody mess! ROFL Ha, ha, ha! Great!
Nice- a little bit too cute to be overly grisly, but still very expressive.
Bwhahahaha! *snort* Love it!
Love this, such a simple idea to use red yarn, but to me that's the essence of clever - everyone around you slaps their head and goes "of course!!"
It made me laugh out loud at work...now my coworkers have seen your blog and think I'm the weird one. :-P
I love this one, Terry!
Well done sir. Well done indeed!
Iiiiii love it!!!

On the horror movie front, Laurie stabbed Michael Meyers with her metal knitting needles in the original Halloween.
wow

We, the knitters, salute you!
Yep, I'm speaking for all of us.
Ewww. Gross.
Very good. :)
Unspeakably awesome. Fortunately not untypeably so. Otherwise you'd never know.
Love your work.

As a knitter - the comments entertain me as much as the photo!
Love it!

Creating that image took real balls. Well, one, anyway.
Love it!
Funny! Ooh...and horrific! LOL

gack! don't point it out, t hey'll stop letting us take them on planes!

HA! I luv it...way funny...I'm snickering quietly to myself in bed so I don't wake my husband!
You should find some blue yarn and make one entitled 'blue balls'. :)
A note from someone who voted for the knitting needles.....Bravo!!!
ouch. He didn't see that coming!
Oh, I loved your work before, and now you deal with my passion! I hope the pointy sticks inspire you further :)
First "stab"...!
Ahahahahaha!!

Good one!
I love this one. :) I'm sending it to my sister who knits!
You Sir, are a genius!
I feel sorry for that little ball of yarn.
Bloody marvellous.
Hooray!! It's perfect, especially the pool of blood. Of course, now I'm going to feel guilty the next time I knit thinking that the yarn is suffering horribly.

I'm not sure this is the appropriate thread for this pun.
I. LOVE. THIS.
good one!
I often have an urge to jam a knitting needle in my eye.
I have no idea what that means.

Haha, that's great! :)
Bravo! This is perfect!
Completely Awesome!
