The heart of knitting
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I really enjoyed this book! I have always thought that knitting was more about the process than the product. When you knit from the heart and give your knit item as a gift you are giving so much more than just the item at hand...you are giving love and a bit of yourself. My daughter loved the look of the angels and fairies in the book. I loved the Padma Jacket, the colorful pictures in the center of the book and also The Folklore of Aran Stitches in the back of the book(it is wonderful to know the greater meaning behind some of the stitches we use!)

Knitters will appreciate the unusual blend which fosters both creative and soulful projects.
