Not sure how many of you watch(ed) Knitty Gritty with Vickie Howell. Well, I say watched because DIY network is no longer producing new episodes and has all but said the show is cancelled. I LOVE this show. Even though there are often items that I could NEVER see myself making; I always picked up some tips, learned new techniques and learned about different designers.
An online acquaintence has started a petition to convince DIY to produce more episodes of the show. Please sign here http://www.petitiononline.com/1234lulu/petition.html
Thanks,

You know I have never seen this show (no cable!), but I would defnitely want it to stay on!
ReplyDeleteHope all is well with you!

ReplyDeleteP.S. The one hour special, Knitty Gritty Knitsters, airs on July 3rd.
Girl, I got an email a few weeks ago and I signed it then!! I really do love this show! I have recorded several shows and watched them back to learn different techniques!
ReplyDeleteI hope the show is saved.
Girl, Vickie Howell HERSELF has commented on your blog.
ReplyDeleteYou should bronze it.
I'm so sad to hear this! I will have to log a comment. My husband cringed when I would watch the show, as knitting has taken so much of my free time and space that he was dismayed to see it creep into my TV time too! So I had to watch it on the sly - but I liked it too! I thought it was a great way to introduce non-knitters to knitting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the birthday wishes.
ReplyDeleteI love this show. Sad.
