In the '50s knitting patterns in the UK for men's knitted attire would always have adverts/pictures of the most ammazing/good looking men. This therefore became a term to describe how good a man looked on the Atractive Scale - Knitting pattern is close to the top. (Knitting pattern guy is a phrase often used too)

Knitting from wool that has been inserted into ones vagina. Term coined by Australian TV channel SBS2Australia in reference to performance art "Casting Off My Womb" by artist Casey Jenkins
Everyday I take a new skein of wool that's been wound so that it will unravel from the center and I stick it up inside me... and then I pull out the thread and perform vaginal knitting.

From an episode of Grey's Anatomy. Meredith takes a vow of celibacy and replaces sex with knitting to keep her mind busy. When a man asks her out on a date she tries to find an excuse to say no and simply says "I am knitting a sweater."
