Product Description

Product Description

This book explores what, arguably, everyone's grandmother always knew, that when passionate knitters become one with the craft, amazing things can happen. In Zen and the Art of Knitting, Bernadette Murphy explores how knitting fits into the larger scheme of life itself as meditation, creative expression, a gift to express love, a way to connect, and much, much more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking, 19 April 2008
This tells the tale of Bernadette getting back into her knitting and looking at how different people in various roles have used knitting. It did make me stop and think at certain points.

It is heart warming and interesting at the same time. Each chapter starts with a page telling us about a knitting basic and ends with a small thing for the reader to do. It also tells us about the wardorf schools which was really interesting. At the back is a basic sweater pattern and list of abbreviations.

A nice book for bedtime reading, a chapter a day is a good pace.
