Some of you might be aware that there’s a bit of a feud going on in the Sydney “knitternet.” It’s all very high school at the moment, and I’ve been trying to stay out of the muck myself. (I will say, though, that I find really artsy, sparse, poetic knit blogs incredibly BORING, and since Mary-Helen is a mate of mine… Well, maybe I have picked a side after all.) Anyway, ginger_nut waded into the fray recently and was rewarded with the snotty insult that her blog lacked “personality.” Rather than stoop to her insulter’s level, she took the opportunity to make an excellent post about her battle with depression. She’s even started a bit of a campaign to raise awareness, which is why I’ve added her “Knit & Fight the Black Dog” button to my site. Kickass, ginger_nut.

I’m not sure I’d call it a feud. More like a small sortie followed by carpet bombing. 🙂 Thanks for the link to ginger_nut.
Having been so insulted, I think ginger_nut has really risen above it all and is doing something so worthwhile. Good luck to her.
love it love it love it
I owe my sanity to knitting and go gingernut for rising above the sludge and name the real issue

LOL – Love that button!
