I'm allergic to bees and taking the desensitization shots. After the
shots I have to wait a half hour to make sure I don't have a serious
reaction. This has been prime knitting time for me since I know I've
half an hour to wait.
If I'm knitting in public, I try to bring something smallish on
circular needles. It's much easier to put down and pick up again.

I had to take my sister to the emergency room this past weekend (post
surgical complications) and I took my knitting and sat there in the ER
and worked without distraction. There was a 9- or 10- or 11-year-old
boy who sat at a distance and watched me for a long time with interest.

When my Dad was in the hospital for cancer treatment, I took a hoop
knitting loom. I could be totally brain dead and still could create
some good looking hats. I got some of the nicest comments and
strangest looks in the waiting area.

I find that you get the strangest looks no matter what craft you take
- knitting, embroidery, beeding, etc. It's like people have forgotten
that crafts can be practiced in public.
