Andrew, Andrew, Andrew. Are you aware that 36% of all American women know how to knit or crochet? And that that number reflects an 51% increase in the number of knitters in the last 10 years? Or, incidentally, that there are more and more men knitting every year? At a recent production of Midsummer Night’s Dream that my theater company did, there were five knitters backstage–three women, two of them in high school; two men, one in college and the other my 55 year old father.
Knitting ain’t just for Grandma anymore.
