and my boyfriend came up with this simple one… But I added to it.
"Need help with your knitting needs?
(insert my drawing of 4 needs: 4 circles each encompassing a different need, one is twisted stitch, one is dropped stitch, one is ‘can’t purl’ and one is ‘newbie’)
on the back or bottom of the front it would say “knittinghelp.com”
If I think of more or am able to scan my drawings, I will post more!
Yeah, the “Yarn Ho” logo from Knitty is not my taste either. Where I’m from, “Ho” is a shocking word; at least it’s not one I’d be comfortable using to refer to myself! [/quote]
[size=6]Heh heh - has anyone noticed that the editor of our wonderful Knittinghelp.com is Amy and the editor of Knitty.com is an AMy too?[/size]
You wouldn’t believe how many Amy’s I meet in the knitting world. I must email one every week, for site Q’s or CD orders, etc., and I know there’s several designers named Amy that I’ve emailed.
My best friend growing up was named Amy, and I new 7 Amy’s in highschool. This Fall I even met an “Amy Johnson” which is my maiden name. Not that I was too surprised, there are 8 Amy Johnsons listed in my local dentist’s computer system. :rollseyes: It’s nice to be Amy Finlay, now, and at least have an original last name! LOL.
Although I do have an original middle name. It’s “Sundari” which is hindu for “beauty.” My parents were hippies, and their yoga guru gave me the name.
KellyK & Beldie that’s so funny! Okay, this is proof that you gals are having an influence on the prude in me. I like the Knotty idea! :rofling: If nothing else, I’ve got to do it just as a present to all you knotty gals. Hmmm, I think a thong might also be in order for that one. LOL.
DH has insisted on doing the lay-out for these shirts, because he’s got more of a graphics design eye than me. He’s already made me a new logo, and he’s worked on a couple of designs tonight! I hope to pursuade him to do them all this week, so I can have them all up next week!
…OKAY everyone,
[size=6][color=red]Here are the designs I’m definitely doing:[/color] [/size]
:arrow: Ekgheiy’s idea of the Jumbled knitting terms, followed by “Got it? …knittinghelp.com”
:arrow: KellyK’s “I’ve found my knitch (@ knittinghelp.com)”, and maybe also “Scratch your Knitch” (should I, shouldn’t I?)
:arrow: KellyK’s Frog with the no symbol, and the words “Less frogging, more Fun.” Possibly items with just the no frog symbol.
:arrow: Flappy’s (+ Hildie’s) “I have a needle habit” (front), “and I’m getting help at knittinghelp.com” (back). Flappy’s concept, with Hildie’s watermark of knitting needles on the front.
:arrow: Mascarasnake’s “It’s not the size of the needles, it’s what you do with them that counts.”
:arrow: Beldie’s “Knotty” word (that KellyK thought would be a good shirt! Nice team work you two. ;))
[size=6][color=indigo]Congratulations to all the ladies mentioned above. You will each be getting a complimentary shirt/item with your idea on it! [/color][/size] (Surprise!) Check back next week. When I put up the store, just email me the link to the item you want, and the size you want, and your mailing address!
Thanks so much to EVERYONE who helped brainstorm, I’m sorry I couldn’t use every single idea, these were ALL awesome ideas you contributed, and I’m keeping a couple more on file for possible future use. You all rock!!
