Is knitting making a comeback? I sure see a lot of trendy looking yarn places popping up in the "cool" parts of towns - sometimes right between a coffee shop and a "medical" marijuana store.  Chalk it up to just being another fad.... or, maybe it's a bit deeper than that.  In a generation where nothing is handmade and everything is disposable, it probably seems kinda wonderful to actually create something yourself and have it for keeps.  Just a thought.  Enjoy "Pop Fashions", a needle craft pamphlet from the sixties.

Y'all come back now. Y'hear?
