"As Knitters Know, the craft is much more than the finished project. By looking at the parallels between knitting and meditation -- how simple, repetitive actions can lead to a greater connection with the world -- Mindful Knitting shows you how to enrich your life by combining the two." "With ten original and enjoyable knitting projects -- each complemented by a meditation exercise -- you'll develop a deeper sense of calm, involvement, and joy in your knitting practice. To help you along the way, the book also includes clearly written patterns, tips for intuitive knitting, and a helpful glossary of knitting techniques and resources. Whether you're an advanced or a beginning knitter, or a new or seasoned meditator, this book will help you develop a renewed sense of self and an increased appreciation of the world around you.
