(HB - E)
€
A new, addictive-to-read collection of essays and stories celebrating yarnùspecifically, the knitterÆs reputation for acquiring it in large quantities and storing it away in whatÆs lovingly referred to as a ôstash.ö The pieces in this collection span from comical to earnest, lighthearted to deeply philosophical, in a celebration of the how, why, when, and what stash each knitter has accumulated over the years. WeÆll hear from bestselling authors, designers, yarn-store owners, essayists, sheep farmers, mill owners, and the people behind the worldÆs largest collective online stash, Ravelry.com. The stories represent and provide validation for knitters' wildly varying perspectives on yarn, from holding zero stash to stockpiling masses of itùand even including it in estate plans.
