hey what a cool thread

There are also some cool ideas on designer goods that you can make on this blog
http://andreatung.blogspot.com/
There is a Marni example there too...and Marc Jacobs hat. There might be some knitting patterns for something more advanced

OooOooooOo...

I really need to make some shirtz...I'm gonna be seeing the Gossip and CSS soon and I want to make me some band tshirtz.

Should I just buy some fabric markers and go wild?
