the knitting bandit strikes again?

by Cassie

I ran into this beautiful WTF-worthy bicycle during my NYC adventure last weekend. I can only assume that it is the handiwork of The Knitting Bandit, who doesn’t steal anything but instead comes in the night and KNITS standing objects. First of all— bravo, Knitting Bandit. I don’t know how you do it. It pleases me greatly. Perhaps you remember my photo of the knitted tree on campus down in Miami. The only logical conclusion for this: The Knitting Bandit has a crush on me and desires nothing more than to make me happy by knitting otherwise overlooked items. In total secrecy. In the dark of night. The only creepy bit is how the Bandit knows where I am, but this can be overlooked because who doesn’t love a good knitted surprise?

I'm Cassie and way happy. There are few things I enjoy more than getting my hands on a nice piece of equipment. Cameras, specifically. Other things commonly found in my hands: books, markers, pastels, binoculars, letters, shells, threads, leaves, & buntpaper.

Sometimes my stuff shows up around here. It's sort of like a walk-in closet full with my favorite things.
what I’m about

I believe in nature through the lens. The way I see it: if you take time to quiet yourself behind a camera, you begin to consider the little world within your viewfinder. If you're still, things come alive. You find beauty.

Photography is the way I like to observe the world around me. My camera, Dean, is a NikonD40, and I adore him. He always accompanies me on my adventures. To be honest, I think he keeps some of the best company.
I love getting email!

I like to hang out on twitter & have silly conversations. I'm @cassoswald. It's the easiest way to chat me up.
