Today, in the middle of an exam, I was escorted out by the campus police due to suspicion of a concealed weapon. The officers couldn't stop laughing for 20 minutes when they found out the weapon was metal knitting needles. FML

- Quilting isn't knitting. That's like telling someone to drill a hole with a welding torch. - You can knit while between classes, or waiting for a class to start, or riding a public bus to campus. - The only time you shouldn't have knitting needles is when you have your crochet hook.

Well it's a good excuse for cheating "Are you looking off someones paper?". "Why no I'm just finnishing this quilt and there are two big convienient holes in it."

The only reason I can think of a person having a knitting needle is for life drawing classes. I had to use one for 2 years in college. It's used to help keep our drawings in proportion. You hold it up at eye lvl with your arm fully extended and aimed at the model, and basically measure the proportions of the body so it looks correct on paper when you draw. Other than knitting, that's the only possible reason she would have one

OP, if I were you, I'd be laughing with them instead of making an FML out of it. Grow up.

OP probably IS laughing. A lot of people post FMLs because they're funny. Her name is "dangerousknitter." Would someone really angry make a name like that?

well obviously they were laughing at the fact that someone thought it was a weapon. You didn't think that (unless you escorted yourself out of the exam), so duhh, they weren't laughing at you. What, you think they were laughing because you were carrying knitting needles or something? Grow up; this is not an FML.

They shouldn't be laughing at you, you should be laughing at THEM.

Let's see them laugh after you stab someone to death with your knitting needles. Those things are scary.

Would you have preferred expulsion? YDI for not carrying actual weapons and making their day a little better. Lighten up, Nancy.
