CHOOSE YOUR DESTINY
I mean your heavy metal knitting song
We’ve handpicked three songs from three aspiring metal artists from Joensuu, Finland. Listen them. Listen them well. Download. And start knitting.

FILM YOUR DESTINY
Err, make a video of you knitting to one of the tunes
Find your ghettoblaster, play the song you’ve picked, press rec and knit like there’s no tomorrow. Or build a storyline and edit the song in afterwards. We don’t care. Anything goes as long as you put on a good show.
A few rules though:
• Maximum video length is 1 minute
• You need to use one of the three songs we’ve picked (any part of the song is okay) (using two or all three songs is okay too!)
• You must do knitting on the video.
• You yourself must perform on the video (extras and other actors are allowed too)
• The video must be uploaded to YouTube for us to view and put on a playlist
• Age limit for the competition is 18

UPLOAD YOUR DESTINY
We want to see it. We really do.
Upload the video into YouTube and make a link out of it for sharing.

FULFILL YOUR DESTINY
Apply by filling this form by 31st of March 2020
5
WAIT FOR YOUR DESTINY
Cross your fingers
Once the application period is over, a well-versed heavy metal knitting jury will review all of the videos.
The jury rates the videos in order and sends out the invitations to the live events for the people who show the best heavy metal knitting attitude and manage to creatively combine heavy metal and knitting.
