I'm sorry this insulted you, not my intent. Piercy's negative opinion of knitting may be partly due to the fact that this was written in the early 80s, before the stitch & bitch movement and reclaiming knitting as something awesome- before it was thought of (correctly or no) as something old or bored people did to pass the time. Not trying to spread knitter-hate, I have a pair of awesome rainbow socks and I would not want to annoy my crafty friends. I thought the overall sentiment was worth the slight dig, but sorry I hurt you.
