While knitting was essential to strengthening her hands, it also provided her with a newfound sense of peace and creativity. Immersed in brilliant colors, textures, and images of beautiful sweaters, Lydon found healing and enlightenment in a way she had never imagined. Capturing this journey of discovery, <i>The Knitting Sutra</i> recounts her remarkable membership in a community of craftswomen around the world, from sweater makers in Scotland to Navajo weavers, and the adventures that her craft led her on. <br><br>As she masters new techniques and conquers old obstacles, Lydon&#8217;s story conveys how the lessons she learned from knitting, such as stillness and interdependence, later sustained her through a cancer diagnosis and even the incapacitation of her hands. <i>The Knitting Sutra </i>is<i> </i>both a meditation on craft and an affirmation for anyone seeking heartfelt comfort. 653587 1997 The Knitting Sutra: Craft as a Spiritual Practice total:72|5:17|4:22|3:18|2:13|1:2| 72 255 127 16 2 4 false false Fri Feb 13 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Tue Dec 30 03:45:41 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 13 18:24:42 -0800 2009 1
