Zen and the Art of Knitting

This book is crafted like a handmade sweater, with great texture & beauty & love. Author Bernadette Murphy knits together creativity, spirituality, & daily life, letting us see the rich & wondrous fabric that connects all of it, all of us, Ôin a piece'. She explores the notion that in the smallest, most mundane gestures, we may find a kind of grace. The book is full of lore, technical tips, colorful needle-wielding characters, & plain old good yarns. Knitting, in Murphy's hands, is more than a metaphor; it is tangible proof of the inner-connectedness of all living things. A wise, illuminating book, for knitters & non-knitters alike.Ó Illustrations.
