Popknits – online knitting magazine, issue 5 is out now. There are some lovely designs – I particularly like the Kikko Hanabishi Socks by Izumi Ouchi (Fair isle socks with a traditional Japanese motif), and Vesterday by Elinor Brown is totally sweet (A child’s stranded vest constructed using steeks).

I love this idea - bakerella has taken a basic cookie recipe and girlified it a little to make the cutest gift set – complete with recipe and downloadable labels so you can make your own.

Or PANTIES, everyone, say PANTIES. I love that word, I know others don’t. Anyhow. If you’re so inclined, convert your knickers. Link to tutorial.

We’re a little slow off the mark here at whipup. Iraqi Bundles of Love is a project intended on flooding northern Iraq (and a little further) with fabric, sewing and knitting materials. USA residents deadline to post your box of goodies to IBOL is 8 September (rest of the world, you might want to get it off quick smart). Quick, get on over, read the details and donate goodies. Link to IBOL.
