They seem more essential than ever in a world that moves too quickly, seems to call us to pick up a smartphone or other gadget, and seems fraught in ways we did not expect five or 10 years ago. Today, knitting and slow knitting seem more important than ever before. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eIncludes color photographs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hannah Thiessen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1419740431\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781419740435\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harry N.
