well crocheting is nanaish but who cares? so is knitting and it's a huge hobby over here, I was shocked when I visited the university here and there were three students (in their 20's) knitting during a lecture! I've even spotted them doing it at church!

I have knitted in the car! I knitted a pair of socks on the way to and from Parachute Festival a couple of years ago!! ;)

Crochet away knowing there is an legion of us out there you know! It's a crafting revolution and you are one of the trail blazers!! :)

What's wrong with crocheting in the car? I do it all the time. I can't read in a moving car, but I can crochet, and still carry on conversations, so it's a win-win. I get some of my best, productive crocheting done "en route". And I don't recall anyone ever laughing at me because I was crocheting in a car. The problem was with the laughers, not with you.

And though I am now a Nana, I've been crocheting since I was a kid, and I do a lot more than doilies and granny square afghans, LOL!!!

Don't ya just LOVE stereotypes...

I love it! I haven't tried crochet in the car... but I think you are on to something.

I had to laugh today, I was crocheting my ripple, chatting to hubby as he put his summer clothes away and pulled out his winter ones while the baby rolled around on the bed. A friend of hubby's called and asked what he was up to and he said "How old and married are we, Christina is knitting and I am cleaning my cupboard." Ha, ha.

I told him he could have lied and said we were 'hanging out' and I did tell him I wasn't knitting... boys...

My mom has knitted baby sweaters in the car for years (she sells them), and I have always aspired to be like her - but I'm not so good at knitting. I can, however, crochet granny squares around her, so that's what I do. I see nothing wrong or Nana-ish about it. Maybe the laughers weren't laughing at the craft - are you sure you didn't have spinach stuck in your teeth? :-)

I've seen people crochet/knit in lots of places. I read or get caught up on my to do list when I am a passenger. I love your granny square! :)

I TOTALLY do this!!! ALL THE TIME. In fact I've often considered asking the dental student at the dental school if I could crochet while s/he works on my teeth but don't have the nerve...however, while I wait for my appointment I do and the last time I visited the dentist I crocheted sitting on the dental chair while we waited for my teeth x-rays - he (the dental student) was doing paper work at his desk beside me.

Of course there are always those who snigger and like to "subtly" make their allusions - such as my hubby delighting in a snicker or two at me whenever the "Next week - the bunny cover!" airwick ad is on.

Once I crocheted on a bench in the middle of a Mall in Boise, Idaho.

I just found you through Dee, and I realize that this post is two years old...but I'm 32, learned to crochet when my eldest daughter was born 3 years ago, and I crochet in the car, or at the bookstore, or really anywhere, IF I have the freedom.
