Day 134 - A non-fictional book


I read this book a while ago (was it really last summer?) and loved the premise. Basically the author is recounting her struggles with knitting a Fair Isles sweater (they are gorgeous, as well as difficult), which may seem like a boring topic, but I'm slightly in love with knitting.

Some of the writing wasn't the best, and I really didn't enjoy the ending, but the rest of the book was enjoyable. It made me go out and get some yarn and attempt to knit again! And now I'm almost done with my first sweater (only a sleeve, the collar, and sewing left!) - so maybe it affected me more than I realized ....
