PURLS OF WISDOM: Gauging the interest in this age-old hobby

Saturday, it seems, was World Wide Knit in Public Day. I am an avid knitter, both in public (especially at township meetings) and at home, but the idea of having a lapful of wool on a hot June day was not an appealing one. Bringing attention to an excellent hobby is certainly a laudable idea, but I suggest they move the event to a cooler time of year.
