skeins?

I have a friend who attends UNC and she had a knitting circle with friends. 
Apparently there are now socio-political-feminist undertones to the 
knitting circles not to mention a certain amount of stereotype busting 
going on (She says there are two guys in the group as well, though it is 
still predominently a gal thing.)

But she says they all have a blast and it does pay homage back to simpler, 
slower times, which I admit sounds refreshing.

Maybe guys need to start whittling clubs? :-)
