At Knit's End
Meditations for Women
who Knit too much
By Stephanie Pearl-McPhee
|
Knitting finally takes its rightful place on the spectrum of personal obsessions,
alongside golfing, fishing, and gardening. The tangled life of the knitter is
the subject of inspired nuttiness in these 300 tongue-in-cheek meditations
from the self-proclaimed yarn harlot, Stephanie Pearl-McPhee. As any knitter
can attest to, this is an activity fraught with guilt, frustration, over-optimism,
sly deception, and compulsion, along with passionate moments of creative enlightenment.
To soothe the unraveled knitter's soul, Pearl- McPhee has selected some of her
favorite quotes to cast off from, and then, like the standup comic of the
knitting world, she rants, raves, and reflects on common experiences
that are sure to leave avid knitters in stitches.
