Review Quotes: "A very special book about women . . . Gracefully links handcraft and spiritual practice in our everyday lives. Because she is both a fine reporter and an honest woman, her book will be rewarding to many women, knitters or not, who are trying to untangle their lives."--Vogue Knitting International
"This soul-stirring volume offers proof positive that crafts are much more than creative outlets--they can be catalysts for our personal transformation."--Body Mind Spirit "This small, quite wonderful book shows all that knitting and meditation have in common--and it's more than some might suspect."--Booklist "Lydon is a good enough writer to bring one to tears."--San Jose Mercury News
