Voluntold


Voluntold! Hah! What a fabulous word!

While browsing Grumperina's blog I followed a link to this knit beauty. Isn't that jacket something else? It's Ram's Horn Jacket from Norah Gaughin's Knitting Nature. Must get a look at that book sometime.

And on top of that, right at the bottom the piece, the writer mentions in passing that she got a friend to model the jacket and took the photos herself, instead of modelling herself and trying to direct the photography at the same time, or modelling the jacket on a dress form. Very useful tip.

But the real gem of the piece? She V O L U N T O L D the friend that she would be the model. Isn't that a great word?

Any other new words you've found in the blogosphere?
