Knitting fraternal twin socks at work (I can add one full round of stitches to both socks during a coffee break) teaches one some interesting things about one's co-workers. Some think the whole fraternal thing is a cool concept, some are just interested in the colours but not what they're becoming, some are very disturbed by the mere existence of non-perfectly-matching socks and keep asking me if I'm sure about this (pointing out to them that there are fraternal socks currently visible on my feet doesn't convince them that I am). And one of the guys is still fascinated by the engineering even though he's already watched two previous pairs grow into completed socks that I now wear. (no he's not flirting, just one of those minds full of curiosity and the burn to learn). :-)
