From the book: "If this pattern is not familiar to you, it can be rather tricky to begin. But once learned, it works easily and quickly. It is a pattern well worth learning; its lovely soft texture is adaptable to dozens of things: scarves, cosy sweaters, babies’ wear, dresses. It is very pretty when done in fine yarn."Collection

Marsha learned to knit from her mother when she was a teenager, but it didn’t stick. She re-taught herself at 33 years old when she decided to knit her boyfriend a scarf. Through the scarf project, which she didn’t finish, she learned a lot about life, love, beginnings, and endings. Since then, handcrafts have become her lifeline, helping her connect with herself and others, and to understand her place in the world. She has taught her two daughters how to knit, crochet, and embroider, and hopes that craft will help them tell their own stories.Lexicon
