Download Knitting Pearls: Writers Writing About Knitting AudioBook Free
The rhythm, ritual, and pleasure of knitting are celebrated in this new collection for addicts of both knitting and books. In Knitting Pearls, two dozen writers reveal the transformative and recovering power of knitting. Lily King remembers the entire year her family resided in Italy, and a knitted hat that helped her girl modify to her new home. Laura Lippman explores how switching to Judaism evolved not only Holiday but also her mother's present of an knitted stocking. Jodi Picoult remembers her grandmother and exactly how through knitting she experienced that everlasting love. And Expenses Roorbach remembers his freshman 12 months in school when knitting soothed his destroyed heart and soul and helped him show up in love again. Other contributors include Steve Almond, Ann Leary, Christina Baker Kline, Lee Woodruff, and knitting rock and roll stars Jared Flood of Brooklyn Tweed and the Yarn Whisperer, Clara Parks. With knitting habits from renowned stores such as Purl Soho, Hill Country Weavers, and Churchmouse Yarns, Knitting Pearls is by turns delightful and heartbreaking, joyous and smart. These personal experiences by award-winning writers celebrate the occasions of loss and love intertwined in the rhythm, ritual, and pleasure of knitting.
