Creative Emancipation


I feel lucky that i am married to a creative man. He is a musician, he sings, writes, plays many instruments, i love it. Love him. But i would never expect to find him behind my sewing machine or sitting on the couch with a pair of knitting needles. That's why this vintage ad is hilarious to me! Can you imagine the males in your life being creatively emancipated like this?

I discovered this amazing ad in a Dutch craft magazine from the seventies. "Creative Emancipation. Do you knit or do i knit..." To release the stress of driving the truck the ad recommends to have knitting time after each driving time.

This is great!

I do know a guy who uses a sewing machine though, he got me into it!

I'd love to find a boyfriend who is creative that way, but there aren't that many around... :(
