Reminds me of Demolition Man (?) when Sylvester Stallone knitted a sweater.

Thanks for the ping; Is the VRWKC still in operation?

Thanks for the ping, Knitting A Conundrum.
Trivia: Long before the APA turned everyone into a pill-popping sci-fi schematic, knitting and needlework were often employed in the thereuptic fields -- for men and women alike, undergoing therapy. The act of doing something productive and with their hands (a hobby) helped ease inner tensions.
And lastly (and I KNOW you know this), men have been knitting since they first learned how to fish -- they knit nets. In every country, in past, and some still do!

I'm still looking for crafters and needle workers in the SAcramento area.

Didn't knitting start with men and sailors?
