Knitting makes me punk because...

... I can create fun and unique accessoires and clothing that really fit my style.
Just like this scarf with a skull pattern, I took the pattern from the "Like a snowball in hell" mittens found at the anticraft.
Or like those fingerless mittens I knit without a special pattern from leftover yarns. It is fairly simple, plain stockinette knitted in the round with a bit of ribbing at the beginning and the end. For the thumb I knit a few times rows instead of rounds and continued to knit in rounds afterwards... That's how I like knitting, nothing to sew at the end lol
And this sweater is my own creating, except for the patterns I used. The knitting pattern for the body was supposed to be a sock pattern and the crochet pattern for the red part of the sleeves was supposed to be a skirt...

I think this makes me punk, to have fun and extraordinary things to wear that I did myself
