Acerca de esta escucha

A collection of poignant essays about the transformative power of knitting by twenty-seven extraordinary writers.

“The impressive collection of writers here have contributed essays that celebrate knitting and knitters. They share their knitting triumphs and disasters as well as their life triumphs and disasters. . . . These essays will break your heart. They will have you laughing out loud.” (Ann Hood, from the introduction)

Why does knitting occupy a place in the hearts of so many writers? What’s so magical and transformative about yarn and needles? How does knitting help us get through life-changing events and inspire joy?

In Knitting Yarns, twenty-seven writers tell stories about how knitting healed, challenged, or helped them to grow.

Barbara Kingsolver describes sheering a sheep for yarn. Elizabeth Berg writes about her frustration at failing to knit. Ann Patchett traces her life through her knitting, writing about the scarf that knits together the women she’s loved and lost. Knitting a Christmas gift for his blind aunt helped Andre Dubus III knit an understanding with his girlfriend. Kaylie Jones finds the woman who used knitting to help raise her in France and heals old wounds. Sue Grafton writes about her passion for knitting. Also included are five original knitting patterns created by Helen Bingham.

Poignant, funny, and moving, Knitting Yarns is sure to delight knitting enthusiasts and lovers of literature alike.

A must for knitters

It captures what we love so well. Ignore the sad comments. You won’t find it sad at all. You will understand the comfort.

Somewhat Disconnected

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Stories were mainly interesting, but many of them were VERY loosely connected to the theme.

Good for bedtime.

Although the stories could be interesting, the delivery was not. It would be good for falling asleep.

Love it!!!!

Comforting, funny, thought provoking & just simply a good book. I never read a book about knitting. I didn't know what to expect. I'm glad I got it.

Can't wait to share with my family

I love being able to listen to a book about knitting while knitting. And so many of the stories evoke memories of my own. I can't wait to share this book with my mom and sister.

I love to knit and so do these folks

If you could sum up Knitting Yarns in three words, what would they be?

I enjoyed listening to the experiences of other knitters. It reminds me that I'm not the only one who finds nirvana when I knit.

Great short stories…

Mostly uplifting short stories centered around knitting…or the importance of in families. Pleasurable to listen to and enjoy…easily to relate to many of these heartwarming, funny and poignant moments. Thanks for collecting them!
