- Slave to the Needles: As a male knitter, do you get any special attention?
- Sufjan: Some women really go for it. One time I was scolded on the subway for not knitting European style. I've since learned.
- SttN: Tell me about the knitting group you were part of in New York.
- Sufjan: Well, that was when I was working two corporate jobs, and felt the need to be around real people making real things with their hands. It was at Visions Center for the Blind. They have all kinds of classes and programs for the visually impaired. There's even a bowling class. It's awesome. Let me tell you, if you're ever feeling down, go hang out with some blind folks. They're the brightest people in the world.
