the yarny side of the underworld

Also, thanks to puckling for pointing Ravelry in the direction of this interview with Joss Whedon on Crochet Me.

JW: I'm aware of the desperate rivalry between the knitters and the crocheters. And, you know, first of all I have to say: can't there be peace?

KW: I agree.

JW: It's an age-old war. Like the werewolves and the vampires. I think Underworld was actually originally about crocheters and knitters but they thought it would be too controversial so they changed it to vampires and werewolves. Um, most of them are sadly knitted. However he does have one crocheted, but he did it himself, and it doesn't go very well.

I wonder if Kyliemac knows of this...

Thanks for the link to the interview. Joss Whedon is a pretty interesting guy. He'd have to be to come up with something like Dr. Horrible.
