Description I don't knit, but I have many friends who do. And my Facebook feed is filled with people posting images of the following quote/meme:

"One Yarn to rule them all,
One Yarn to find them,
One Yarn to bring them all
and in the darkness bind them."


The image was bland and just had text over it, it's functional, but I wanted to try to make it as close to Lord of the Rings posters of the ring that I've seen in the past. And this is the result.

As I said before, I don't know much about knitting (so maybe there should be two yarn balls rather than one) and so ask for forgiveness if I messed up the meme. But I was inspired and wanted to quickly put something together.

Because I didn't have much time to work on this, I didn't hunt on the internet to find perfect font (just simple free elvish font) and I didn't have access to my tablet, so some areas might look a little rough. I might come back to this and fix it up and make corrections, but this is as good as it gets right now.

Also...does anyone know how to say "Yarn" in Black Speech? I doubt there is a word since Sauron invented the language and I doubt he spent time thinking translating words for his knitting group. Now there's an idea...

Another very happy yarn and Tolkien fan. This is great fun.
Pay no attention to that yarn stash that is stuffed around my already overstuffed bookcases. :-D

Three mm Hooks for the crochet fiends sly
Seven inch long for the afghan stitch chore
Nine Needles (one got lost) for the knitters with chai
One yarn for the dark lord in his dark store
In the land of Michael's*, where the yarn stacks high.
One Yarn to rule them all, one yarn to find them,
One Yarn to bring them all and in the darkness bind them!

*Replace with your local yarn-buying store; craft mega-store chains prefered.

And now I will never be able to seriously watch or read lord of the rings again. Thanks for that.

I have a tendency to do that to serious stories/movies/games. I blame my silly nature.

One ball, two needles: works just fine! No technical fouls.

Thanks! I only dabbled in knitting and don't know everything about knitting. But it's reassuring to hear that I did alright.
