			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3203" title="knitting-basket-cake1" src="http://www.alpacafarmgirl.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/knitting-basket-cake1.jpg" alt="knitting-basket-cake1" width="200" height="253" />This knitting basket looked so good to me, full of fiber yumminess. Then I found out &#8211; IT&#8217;S A CAKE! Now it&#8217;s even more delicious. Cake decorating is such a fun art. I always like to watch the Gingerbread House Decorating Contest on the Food Network around Christmas time. <a title="Piece of Cake Decorating" href="http://www.blogcatalog.com/blog/piece-of-cake-decorating" target="_blank">Piece of Cake Decorating Blog</a> has some nice ideas and videos if you want to see more creative cakes.</p>
<p>Back to the Fiber Arts. This week on <a title="Twitter Alpaca Farmgirl" href="http://twitter.com/AlpacaFarmgirl" target="_blank">Twitter</a> there has been discussion over the rumor that Russell Crowe knits. Is he using the knitting needles (below) as a prop or is he really a knitter? The debate had me thinking about Father&#8217;s Day and wanting to feature Dads that knit, or at least men who do fiber arts. A great guy who comes to mind is Chris who blogs at <a title="Vtknitboy" href="http://vtknitboy.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Vtknitboy</a>. He&#8217;s a generous, knowledgeable spinner and knitter who brightens my days.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" title="Russell Crowe knitting" src="http://www.menknit.net/images/GAL_russellknits.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></p>
<p>This week, please urge the male fiber artists you know to participate in Fiber Arts Friday. We would love to see what the guys are doing with their Fiber! I will leave this edition of Fiber Arts Friday open for a week to give us some time to get the boys over for some fiber fun. Happy Father&#8217;s Day!</p>
<h2>Fiber Arts Friday Blog Carnival!</h2>
