Summary: Good, but at times a bit somber
Comment: I credit this book for part of the reason I am currently knit-obsessed. Wonderful stories within about how knitting connects us to past generations, eases our pain and surrounds the person we give our handcrafted item to with love.

While I truely enjoyed most of the stories, the somber ones relating to loved one's passing away seemed grouped together making it a bit depressing at times.

All in all, a good little book to tuck into your knitting bag for when you don't have time to stitch, but you do have time for a quick story.

Summary: What in inspiration!!
Comment: As a beginner knitter who was frustrated in learning this wonderful craft, I found this book very inspiring and fun to read. As I dropped stitches, knitted it the wrong size, and looked at some instructions as though they were in some secret code, I would read a few stories and find myself pcking up the knitting and truly having a new outlook on life. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has ever considered knitting. Don't miss out on these GREAT stories.

Summary: WHEN YOU CAN'T KNIT
Comment: When you can't knit, why not read about it? These series of essays are so varied and interesting. Some are funny, some sad, some whimiscal, but all touch the readers heart in a special way. Perfect for taking on a plane, or any other time you can't knit.

Perfect gift for those who are readers AND knitters (like me).

My favorite story was "Baby Blanket" on page 184 by Jean Stone. So emotional, it moved me to tears.
