A New Word: Twee

Thanks to needled's blog, I learned a new word today and can't wait to use it in the knitting context. (A new knitting word? oh my!)

twee: affectedly dainty or quaint
Now only used in depreciatory use
(Oxford English Dictionary)

Anyone knitting something twee?

I can imagine myself commenting on some recent blog posts, "My, that handwork is so amazingly twee."

Try to use your new knitting word with someone today...Go!
