Stitching or Bitching?

I don't know a lot about knitting - in fact, I consider knitting to be close to real magic. (I mean really - a straight piece of fabric thread or yarn is knotted together to make sweaters, socks, etc. That's gotta be supernatural!) But I have been around knitters most of my life (one is even blogrolled here), and I do sell raw and processed fleece.

Interestingly enough, I also have a category called 'Copywrongs'. And the actions of this sewing materials supply company in New York mesh perfectly with both of these rather curious interests of mine...

Sew Fast/Sew Easy Inc., a New York based company, uses aggressive legal tactics to bully small, social knitting chapters nationwide over the use of the term "Stitch and Bitch" or any variant of those three words. None of these small knitting chapters operates for profit.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
