Ha!

If you read the Yarn Harlot's blog, you'll know all about the verb she invented back when she took a picture of Greg Kinnear without his knowledge.

Well, the verb is now official, picked up by all sorts of people, including the New York Times:

kinnear v.

To take a candid photograph surreptitiously, especially by holding the camera low and out of the line of sight. Coined in August by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee of the Yarn Harlot blog when she attempted to take a photograph during an encounter with the actor Greg Kinnear at an airport.


Neat, huh? I used the new verb a while back, last September, when I kinneared the Yarn Harlot at the Stitch n' Pitch :)
