Irregular knitting

The Irregular Webcomic started on 31 December 2002 and was named because the author, though intending to publish one daily, didn't want to totally bound by that rule. (Interestingly, though, he has missed only two days since April 2003!) Using Lego figures and occasionally roleplaying figures, he manages to skewer pretty much every "geek" genre--pirates, Star Wars, fantasy, Martians, and Harry Potter, among others. (You can see the whole list here and here.) On an interesting side note, the author has also made the comics available in a format for visually impaired people, so screen-reader software can read the text aloud to them. Nice.

Today's installment features knitting and pirates. It's hard to get much cooler than that.

Wait--does this mean that knitting is cool, or that it's so geeky that it's now worthy of the attention of the Irregular Webcomic? Hmmm...
