I've seen a lot of young women at my LQS and there seems to be a resurgence of interest. But my son's GF doesn't even know how to sew on a button.
But then again, my mother didn't teach me how to sew, knit, crochet, etc. It was a babysitter old enough to be my grandmother. I'm the only girl of three who has these skills. Must have been the right babysitter at the right time.
