To make a long story short..he took a seminar for a week on knitting..

It is that awkward for the other person moment though - I just ignore it. Usually a small comment back depending on who it is (good personal relationship = well, why aren't you crocheting them? or someone I may not know that great "it's a relaxing hobby - very stress relieving" )<br /><br />I hope you give it a whirl again. Perhaps if you find someone else where you work that crochets, you can have a little lunch group once a week :)Crishttp://crochet-with-cris.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6884416285402915069.post-19717487888560798082011-09-29T06:18:47.925-05:002011-09-29T06:18:47.925-05:00I will be writing the intriguing post in a couple ...I will be writing the intriguing post in a couple days :) I think they wanted to see it done too LOL but with me and knitting, it just doesn't happen that fast :P<br /><br />I have gotten a few comments about it being a hobby for older women too - but like you, I just ignore them. As for the pres of operations - who cares what you do at the front desk as long as you are getting all the work done. I'd do it at my desk too if I could - shame I have to use my hands for typing though .... lots and lots of typing LOL (I'd rather be knitting or crocheting!)Crishttp://crochet-with-cris.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6884416285402915069.post-52175784750488084302011-09-29T05:26:32.264-05:002011-09-29T05:26:32.264-05:00LOL Sounds very interesting!

As an aside, I get asked questions about what I'm making etc all the time. They like to watch me doing it and then really like to see the items when they are finished.florencefrazier2002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6884416285402915069.post-87204448250221748542011-09-29T04:24:34.218-05:002011-09-29T04:24:34.218-05:00I was discouraged from crocheting in my lunch brea...I was discouraged from crocheting in my lunch break at work when the MD walked into the kitchen and started making comments about it being something only old women did.
