{"product_id":"skein-christen-mattix-9780692901502","title":"Skein","description":"\u003cp\u003eAt 34, Christen is unemployed and lonely when, on a whim, she decides to knit a half-mile blue line from a bench to Bellingham Bay, a decision that cracks open a world of social interaction with her lovable and quirky neighbors. In the three and a half years she knits at the Bench, Christen visits a Trappist Monastery, falls in love, and recommits herself to the crazy life of a contemporary artist. Told with honesty and self-deprecating humor, Skein is both an intimate glimpse into Christen's psyche and a warm and sparkling account of a real neighborhood with all its joy and sorrow. Knitting in downpours, cold and record-breaking heat, Christen finally arrives at the Bay. In the end, her greatest artwork is the neighborhood that comes together in radical celebration and love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christen Mattix\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0692901507\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692901502\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Village Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.80d","brand":"Christen Mattix","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946997940479,"sku":"9780692901502","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_d24df6ff-3b80-421f-967f-cd23423267f4.jpg?v=1681516100","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/skein-christen-mattix-9780692901502","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
