Oh I so am in the mood to hear about a new book (or new to me) and I will give this a try. I think knitting is a really beautiful and soothing thing to do. I did some years and years ago and just love looking at all the yarn in a yarn shop. It's like a big fuzzy box of crayons.

Thanks for the tip! I'm needing a new book since I have been so absorbed in historical fiction!

Okay I will put this book on my list STAT!! I now have too many library items checked out..I will have to slow down.

Speaking of a novel set around knitting...I recently read The Knitting Circle by Ann Hood and I loved it. You would too. Get it!
