Just looked up the meaning of gnarly: it means anything from utterly gross to awesomely outstanding to smooth and wild, to wiry and knobbed. Can be used pretty much anyway you want to express what other words fail to do, as in "That was one gnarly stunt" if someone survives falling out of a 10 story window.
In re: my knitting, gnarly pretty much applies, since I tend not to follow directions well, or decide to go off in a different direction totally from what the designer originally planned, so I end up with anything from disgusting and gross to pretty cool, dude!
