For The Geek Woman Who Has Everything
Here’s the thing: we geeks buy our own toys, and if we don’t, we *tell* you what to get us. I don’t know if folks even try to surprise me anymore, because when it’s gift-giving season - birthdays, Christmas, etc. - folks just call me and ask me what I want.
So how does one surprise the geek woman who has everything? Oh, she doesn’t have *everything*!
Case in point: I got an email a while back from Nicole over at Knit, Nicole, Knit! Now, knitting isn’t my gig, but far be it from me to deny another breed of geekery. Nicole suggested that I check out The Mario Scarf Blog.
From Cthulhu bibs to Princess Leia bun hats to the namesake plumber’s hat, this site seems to have all the geek bases covered. (OK, the Cthulhu ski mask is just creepy.) Take a peek! Maybe you can’t buy them from this site, but if you’re a knitter, or know someone who is, maybe you can sweet talk your way into some patterns.
Thanks to Nicole for sharing, and for reading dotFiveOne!
