I don’t know if you all have caught on to this, but arts and crafts have been taken back. What once were nostalgic activities most often seen in Better Homes and Gardens such as stitching, needlepoint, and craftmaking have been totally punkified by groovy ladies looking to reclaim their heritage. And so: Stitch ‘n’ Bitch, a punk-rock stitch workshop at Undergrounds Coffeehaus is born. Bring $10 for a crochet hook, a skein of yarn, printed instructions, and 5 stitch lessons. UG will also play movies while you get to needlin’ — Young Einstein, Death to Smoochie, and The Wedding Singer.
