Knitting About Football

Reflections in d minor has a load o' links on the topic of Dancing About Architecture, that is, the age-old problem of how to talk and write meaningfully about music.

For the title of this post, I looked for words I could juxtapose from the link above, and I grabbed knitting and football.  Then it hit me:  certainly it is very possible to knit about football.  So let me give you some wackier pairings.  The template is: 
[performance or act of artistic creation] - About - [discipline, genre, or philosophy of art]. 
As it happens, I came up with seven, a very relevant number.
Yodeling About Film Noir
Woodworking About Virtual Reality
Chanting About Matchstick Cathedrals
Weaving About Anime
Boogying About Wabi-Sabi
Bowling About Columbine
Blogging About Postmodern Self-Reference
