Welcome to the Academics Knit homepage!

I hope that you will join our Academics Knit Ring. I noticed that many knit bloggers are academically associated in some way. What is it about academics that drives us to knit? It makes sense to develop some way to link our experiences together--hence the Academics Knit ring. I love to read about what everyone else does at work and on the needles. If you do too, please consider joining the ring.

 

Here are the criteria for belonging to the Academics Knit Ring:

  1. You need to be affiliated with academia in some manner. You might be a professor, administrator, staff, librarian, student (grad or undergrad) or have another university/college linked job. This ring is meant to be inclusive; we accept those who have any affiliation with a university or college (both 4 year and community).
  2. You must have a blog that talks about both knitting and academia on a regular basis. You should post at least one time a week.
  3. The ring code must be correct and visible from the blog frontpage. If your blog doesn't display the code, you'll be deleted from the ring.
  4. You will have one week from the time you submit your site to put your ring code on the frontpage of your blog. The ring code must be running correctly.

 

Buttons:

I have developed one button that you are welcome to use. Please save this button to your server; do not link to my server. If you develop a new and more exciting button, and are willing to share, please send it to me to post.
