Kneek

Brainstorming for a domain name four years ago when we moved our little family to New Hampshire to live ‘the green dream’, I was newly infatuated with knitting, had just discovered knitty.com and wanted something snappy to make a personalized email address.

Knit + Geek = Kneek

If this were a newspaper, the caption for this photo would read:
“Obsessed knitter volunteers to sit in concrete library stairwell knitting paper for two hours while perplexed onlookers try unsuccessfully to engage the impassive woman in conversation.” Performance art. Knitting for two hours in a rocking chair, wearing a warm cloak. Who cares if I’m knitting paper? I’m knitting, and no one is bothering me. Enough said.

I’m no longer just a knitgeek, hence the name change. If you came here looking for Kneek, you’ve found the right blog, I’ve just decided to change the name.

You can see the original family website here, with pictures of Lance’s family home in New Hampshire, Sophie and Owen when they were much younger and an archive of our crafts during the early years.
