Who are those grannies wielding sharp implements in front of the Times Square U.S. Army Recruitment Center you wonder? Why, they are the Granny Peace Brigade and they are knitting their way to - yes! you guessed it - peace in Iraq. It goes to show that there really is a connection between knitwear and world peace. (See Knitwit Erotica post below.) After all, these women have been around for a long while and they wouldn't be knitting all those afghans for Iraqis for nothing now, would they? Seriously, they are well-organized and determined to speak out against the war and their website can probably teach all of us a thing or two about civil disobedience.
