the KWH iPad Show #9 š the knitting reel artistry of Greg Climer
.
Hello & Welcome
to my 9th episode of the
KWH iPad Show!
Today’s feature isĀ an artistic yarn aboutĀ a
real knit scarf designed like a movie film reelĀ š
.
Yay, it’s the weekend! Time to kick back with the needles for a bit of knitting R&R š Our weekend forecast says it’s finally goingĀ to rain. We’re hoping forĀ a downpour, since water bills are expensive and our lawns/gardens are getting pretty thirsty! Saturday the 13th is also World Wide Knit In Public Day. Will you be joining KIP friends to celebrate WWKIP Day? My rainy day weekend plan is to simply stay home, watch movies and knit…
Knitting and movies just seem to go together, wouldn’t you say? And for New York fashion designer, Greg Climer, they are kniterally the reel deal š Reel as in film. And film, as in his 19-second “watchable scarf” test reel. The test stretches about as long as a New York City block and took about a year and a half to make! Frame-by-knitted-frame… he’s turning film into fabric and fabric into film! Climer endeavours toĀ knit a 2-4 minute yarn story next. Wow, amazing art! JustĀ imagine the reel length of that scarf!!!
Watch his 19-second test reel, below. Click here and here to read more about Climer’s fab fibrous film.

You gave me a good chuckle with these playful words. Knitting and watching sport is my thing! Settles the nerves slightly!
