Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
I'm always so impressed by people who can knit, especially if they're good at it. I have no patience, so I'm pretty sure I would be a lousy knitter: I'd be trying to rush through and see how much I could get done in a certain amount of time.
If you're into knitting, either as a participant or fan, and you like food, then you'll love the work of Ed Bing Lee. Though I'm not quite sure why Inventor Spot did a post on this knitting artist, I'm glad they brought him to my attention. Mr. Lee's delectables series includes a knitted hamburger, ice cream cone, and key lime pie, among other things.
If you knit food, or just have some images you'd like to share, we always love to see that kind of thing here at Slashfood. Happy weekend!

What they appear to be is very careful knotwork, variations on macrame. That's commonly done with waxed linen.
Thanks for sharing them here, they were a delight to see!

"He has been perfecting the art of the knot for over 25 years and uses “double half hitch mainly, square knot and wrappings, and at times invented knots for the situation.”"
So, at least he knows it's not knitting ;)
