I'm as addicted to wool and yarn as I used to be to nicotine.
The two things are not unrelated. Knitting helped me give up smoking. Certainly one is much healthier than the other and the social benefits of, say, the charity hats, far greater than chucking cigarette butts on the ground. Economically, I'm sure cigarette sales exceed yarn sales but wouldn't it be fabulous if the opposite were true?
It is then, surely, reasonable to have the odd break during the day to feed my addiction in the same way the smokers in the workplace take time out for a smoke.
I wonder if I can get it into our next workplace agreement?

Take this idea to the very top! We former smokers need to make up for so much lost time with the needles!
This is a perfectly reasonable argument. I'm with you as a former smoker!
