Things I Learned From Knitting

by Ivan Rojovski Ebook Store
A lot of texts have been written on life wisdom; however the way Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, a renowned author and humorist, has brought into light this aspect in her book – Things I Learned From Knitting (Whether I Wanted To or Not) is praiseworthy. She has adopted a unique style of writing in this masterpiece, which is both witty and engaging. Writing on how knitting can provide enlightenment about oneself and life, the author has used the old-age phrases and sayings in a humorous and interesting manner. The stand out quality of this text is the way in which the knitting experience has been interlinked with real life situations. 

The author has shared her experiences and observations so delightfully that it is bound to appeal equally to all those who find contentment in knitting. In the book – Things I Learned From Knitting – popular phrases like “a friend in need is a friend indeed” and “birds of a feather flock together” have been used in an unusual manner that lends the text a whimsical tone. At a lot of places in the text, the author has quoted the sentence “Knitting is still trying to teach me...”, which convinces the reader to connect the content with the art of knitting. Unlike other books written by the author, this one does not contain any specific knitting tips and techniques, instead it teaches essential life skills that make the book worth reading anyway.
