Vickie Howell (of the recently-canceled Knitty Gritty TV show on DIY Network) has posted a call for submissions for her upcoming book, Craft Corps.

According to Howell, Craft Corps “will focus on the community perpetuated by craft and the designers & hobbyists who feed it.” She’s planning to include 50-60 profiles of crafters, from a broad variety of crafts.

To file your submission, copy and paste her questionnaire into an email, fill it out, and send it to her no later than August 15th. Details here.

Knitty Gritty canceled; Vickie Howell moving to Lifetime

knitty gritty canceled

By now you have probably heard that TV show “Knitty Gritty” has been canceled by the DIY network. Vickie Howell reportedly announced on her blog (although I am unable to find the original post) that she would be moving to the Lifetime network.

Boo, DIY Network! I only recently started watching DIY’s “Knitty Gritty” leftovers on HGTV. As soon as I start watching, it gets canceled. Typical.
