Hi all, comments welcome, which guy joins me in knitting?
If you're stuck for entertainment in New York on a Friday night, and as long as you're man enough, try learning to rib at "Boyz Nite" at a Greenwich Village venue from 9 until late.
That's rib as in knitting the cuff of your sweater...

t New York, a wool and craft store in Lower Manhattan, is fighting the stereotype that knitting is the province of women. "Are you strong enough to knit and man enough to purl?" says an advertisement for Boz Nite on the shop's Web site.The store draws dozens of men to its weekly men's night where beginners and experts gather to exchange tips over beer and hot dogs.
"Believe me, we love women," said store manager Josh Bennett. "But it's like when guys get together to watch a football game, they have all that in common so there is that sense of excitement. After a long week, you can come and work on your project have a couple of beers and hang out." story goes on.
What do you think? Would your husband like this idea? Should I start a knitter's group? Cheers, Jurgen - I knit!
