Right. My wife knits. The furnace room is full of yarn and we have knitting
books and patterns scattered through most of the house. It's sure cheaper than
any of my hobbies, and it makes her a quiet and appreciative passenger in a car
or plane. I have no inclination to pick up a set of needles myself.

Being able to accept and appreciate each other's interests is what's important.
