I haven't gotten any dumb comments yet, but this lady asked me if she could feel what I was knitting once. :thinking:

That feeling thing has me TERRIFIED to take my christening gown out in public to knit!!! I've had my work fondled before, but it didn't matter before.

At Border's, I got "You must not have any kids at home"
Now, I don't, but what kind of stupid comment is that? Like a mom can't have a break?? :rollseyes:

"Did you make the sweater you're wearing?"
Grinning, "Yes, I did."
"You did not."

These are from students who know I knit. They ask me about every single sweater I wear, even ones from Lands End that are made from the thinnest thread.
I've also gotten the response, "No f***in' way!" and "Bulls**t!"
It's just their way of showing appreciation for beauty.
