Summary: What in inspiration!!
Review: As a beginner knitter who was frustrated in learning this wonderful craft, I found this book very inspiring and fun to read. As I dropped stitches, knitted it the wrong size, and looked at some instructions as though they were in some secret code, I would read a few stories and find myself pcking up the knitting and truly having a new outlook on life. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has ever considered knitting. Don't miss out on these GREAT stories.

Summary: Solace for knitting ban on airplanes
Review: I bought this book because I thought it would be a good substitue for not being able to knit on an 8-hour flight. It did not disappoint. There are quite a few humorous stories to break up the more sentimental and New-Agey type ones. It is clear from this book that knitters come in all varieties which makes for an interesting read. I'm looking forward to the next volume!

Summary: Good, but at times a bit somber
Review: I credit this book for part of the reason I am currently knit-obsessed. Wonderful stories within about how knitting connects us to past generations, eases our pain and surrounds the person we give our handcrafted item to with love. While I truely enjoyed most of the stories, the somber ones relating to loved one's passing away seemed grouped together making it a bit depressing at times. All in all, a good little book to tuck into your knitting bag for when you don't have time to stitch, but you do have time for a quick story.

Summary: Fun reading for any kind of knitter
Review: I enjoyed reading these knitting stories. They were diverse and showed that knitting is not your just your grandmother's craft. I especially liked the charity knit stories and wrote down the address of the group that knits hats for the poor children. I started knitting last year, and have truly fallen in love with it. I cannot wait until I complete the sweater I am working on... then I will have a "sweater story" too!

Summary: A Good Yarn for the Knitting Obsessed
Review: I enjoyed this book -- but I think it's safe to say that you won't like it if you're not obsessed with knitting. This collection of essays about knitting was interesting, amusing, and heartstring-tugging by turns. A pleasant way to while away a few hours!

Summary: Skip this book and go to Knit Lit Two
Review: I read Knit Lit two first and loved it. The stories were funny and touching and varied. I laughed outloud at some and cried with others. So I bought the first one, Book Lit, and was very disappointed. Start with Book Lit Two, skip this one.

Summary: A must-read for knitters and lapsed knitters!
Review: My sister bought this book for me out of the blue, and it reminded me of the reasons I used to knit so passionately. I eventually got tendonitis, and had to switch crafts for a while, but this book brought me back into the fold!
