Knitting Heaven and Earth

Knitting Heaven and Earth

I just finished reading _Knitting Heaven and Earth_ by Susan Gordon
Lydon. She also wrote _The Knitting Sutra_.

Sue Bender (_Everyday Sacred_) did one of the blurbs on the back.

Lydon wrote, "What I lived informed my knitting, and what I learned from knitting informed my life."
Hmm! I rip out a lot. Knit in circles hour after hour.

Then she said, "While I am not a particularly original or even accomplished knitter, I am an impassioned knitter."
Amen. Don't you just love the word impassioned?

On the other hand as I read somewhere else this week, can't remember where, knitting is well suited to the obsessive-compulsive. Impassioned vs obsessive-compulsive... a thought for the day.

Are you getting the idea that I spend a lot of time reading?

Lydon wrote, "I want the knitter in me to be as free, wild, artistic, and creative as she has the desire to be."
I'm going to print this quote in block letters and post it.
