Knitlandia: A Knitter Sees the World by [Parkes, Clara]All those who know me know this book was made for me. I love the adventures that the author Clara Parkes goes on to explore the world of knitting. Filled with her essays I was able to take part in each of her 17 journeys she went on in this book with her. As an avid knitter I felt like I could see the rich colors, feel each fiber as she shared them with us. She let me go to Taos, Tacoma, Washington; the Hudson: The New York Sheep and Wool Festival and to Edinburgh. Some of these I will never see with my own eyes but I was able to see them with her. If you like adventures, knitting or yarn I most highly recommend this book for you. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

The first few essays were alright, but I slogged through most of this book. I was hoping it would impart some creative inspiration to readers, even non-knitting ones, but sadly, it didn't.
The main focus is yarn; all the festivals and marketplaces mentioned blended into one; there was a lot of name-dropping of those in the knitting world, of whom I know nothing; no stories were particularly memorable.
I'm sure I would have enjoyed this more if I actually was a knitter; but even then, I can't see myself giving more than three stars for the book. ( )
