  5. Even a while after having watched that, I keep hearing "BJOOOOOOORRRKKKKK!" in my head. In that voice. >_>

  10. That was awesome. I just spent the last minute giggling like Mad Margaret. So wonderfully kooky.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Ok, what about us crocheters?

    ReplyDelete
  12. Now I'm going to spend the next week (at LEAST) shouting "B-JOOOOORK!" and no one will know why.

    This means it's up to you and Stephen to come bust me out of the loony bin when my husband has me committed. :)

  16. At the risk of offending B-JÖÖÖÖÖÖRK! fans, I'm seriously disappointed that Björk was not harmed in the making of this PSA. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  17. I have no memory of this. I think I need memory repression therapy. BJÖRK!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Who was it heard laughing in the background after you asked "You know this is going on YouTube?"

    ReplyDelete
  19. Yep. Totally weird. Totally, totally weird, but what other way is there to be but totally, awesomely, knitastically weird? :D)

    Now Stephen will be assaulted by the entire BMFA crew going "BJORRRRRRK!" You are evil Franklin. I love you.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Laughing too hard to type! Even made me produce a very unladylike snort.

    ReplyDelete
  25. No words to express how epically awesome this is.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Thank you. I needed that.

    ReplyDelete

    hhhhmmmm.

    We're you guys just coming off of some of Iceland's famous libations?

    ReplyDelete
  30. Strange, I did not laugh - perhaps because that seems like normal behavior to me! Besides, I'm a big Stephen fan after the flash mob last summer at Sock Summit. I also took his class, which was very good (I tried to take yours but it filled up too fast).

    ReplyDelete
  31. Love. How perfectly awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Hmmm... maybe I should be a little bit worried about myself...

    ReplyDelete
  33. My one-year-old son found this to be the funniest thing ever. Clearly, I need to get the boy a set of needles and some nice yarn, because we have a future knitter on our hands!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I'm gonna do that all day now... "Be-jooooooork"... Love it!

    ReplyDelete
  35. I had the misfortune of watching this just before bed. Do you realize how hard it is to fall asleep while saying "b'jork!" in your head?

    ReplyDelete
  36. What's so weird about that?

    ReplyDelete
  37. =Tamar5:57 PM

    Still giggling madly. Going out to dinner with non-knitters. This is going to be difficult.

    yes, to know stephen is to love him.
    too funny, thanks for sharing!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Hahaha! I had totally forgotten about this!! It is brilliant!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Great! All my sweaters ever say is, "You know, that was supposed to be a purl stitch". And they never even tell me that until several rows later.

    ReplyDelete
  42. so cute. Thanks for the smile Franklin

    I had to put down my tea, or risk it going on the keyboard. The look on his face, after you casually mention, "You know this is going on YouTube, right?" Priceless....

  44. Oh, Stephen. We love you, but now I'm forever going to mispronounce her name in my head.

    ReplyDelete
  45. *dies of the giggles*

    That was AWESOME!! And hysterically funny!!!

    ReplyDelete
  46. You crack me up!

    Hoping for an "encore" tomorrow in NYC.

    ReplyDelete
  47. My cat was very concerned with the sweater's singing (I might have had the volume up too loud). :)

    ReplyDelete
  48. Yes, but we're a proud bunch of wierdos

    ReplyDelete
  49. Ah, rather like puppeteers.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I'm so glad I came to the comments. I had no idea what the sweater was saying. I'm assuming the sweater is not Icelandic, because his pronunciation is, uh, poor.

    ReplyDelete

    That was awesome. My 4 year old came over to see what I was listening today. He is now wandering around the house saying BJÖRK over and over and over. Singing it. Saying it. Mimicking the exact pronunciation.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I have to say, I saw this the day you posted it up, and as I was ambling through the older posts, I came upon it again. It holds up. I laughed and laughed, a second time. Aaah Stephen, I hope your sweater someday gets to meet B-jork!

    ReplyDelete
  53. Oh my god. That was the most awkward sounding video to play in the office this afternoon. Hilarious!

    ReplyDelete

  55. I had a very identical issue with my device attached steek (my first and probably not the last). I ran out of my row, though not quite as far as the yoke routine. It created for a drunk drift about of a meat, but it still proved helpful well enough to create a awesome cardigan. Of course, I should have selected it out and tried again.
