Fronto-central theta rhythms on EEG have been associated with cognitive tasks requiring attention and concentration, such as mental arithmetic or geometric construction. With the advent of video monitoring, there have been reports of new, task-specific, fronto-central theta rhythms reported with active texting or playing videogames on mobile phones. Concentration or attention combined with manual dexterous acts is challenging to simulate in an artificial and non-spontaneous environment, such as an epilepsy monitoring unit. We report a case of a fronto-central theta rhythm during active knitting using a needle and yarn with only passive concentration to highlight involvement of a corticomotor component underlying the neural networks involved in the efferent expression of scalp EEG to differentiate it from similar rhythms.
