Designer Victoria Smith came up with a great way to discover new blogs and see what is inspiring people all over the blog world with Blog it Forward – a chain of blogs all talking about what inspires them as designers.
What is fun about being a knitter is you can find inspiration in so many different design areas. From fashion to textiles to home goods to yarn to necessity.

Oooh I can’t wait to check out all these links!
As for what inspires me- random blogs that I stumble upon and friends who are craft-tacular like myself. Oh and knitting magazines, if only to dream a little dream… (of a mohawk hat). Heh
