I learned to knit when I was a kid in about the same way (minus the secret code angle). Except that my mom didn't want to teach me because she was afraid kids would make fun of me. I made her life miserable till she did. Then I wanted to take my little swatch of cloth to show-and-tell. Mom again discouraged me because I'd get teased. I took it anyway, and what happened was that within a week, almost every kid in the class was knitting. :)

I think that's an excellent representation of the male knitting experience in many ways. I most love the part where the knitted scarf is compared to a Mozart concerto...quite high praise indeed.

Thanks for posting this.
