Wil Wheaton knows. . .

about the whole knitting subculture. He has also mentioned that if he did knit, he'd knit the binary scarf and the space invader socks.

So, there's a call to some craft groupie! If you do, please share your story!

Here's a cute blog entry about the Knitsmith's run in with Wil.

This is me gifting a pair of socks to George Hrab. I got some feedback from Scott Hurst (the guy who took the photo and was hosting George for this event) and he kept telling him that it was so cool that someone knitted socks for him. He was really gracious when I presented them to him. My husband started calling me a craft groupie, which is what has really inspired this site.

The Infamous Clown Sweater

Someone presented Wil Wheaton with a clown sweater. It's a great story.

Craft Groupie: Kim Werker

the founder of CrochetMe.com, the editor of Interweave Crochet, co-host of Knitting Daily TV and the author of Crochet Me.

She interviews Joss Whedon here.

What is a Craft Groupie

A Craft Groupie is someone who made a hand craft and presented it to a famous person.

So, I'm going to try to find other craft groupies and post their stories here.
