For many centuries, knitting was traditionally done by men (think sailors). Surprisingly, needlework (of many sorts) was a venue mainly occupied by men (e.g.. tailors), especially not too long ago. Fishnets are made by particular "knots" (think macrame). Sky |

Rosie (heh) Greer did needlepoint. Anyone notice the bagpipe music on the UTube video? Men used to knit their own stuff while out on the battlefields waiting to kill people. LOL Jill |
