What a marvelously funny book....full of 'inside jokes' that only other knitters would understand and appreciate. I loved it, and have laughed so much that my husband had me read several parts of chapters out loud. It made him feel so much better to know he wasn't the only husband dealing with piles of yarn & needles, books, magazines & instructions in every room of the house. Stephanie writes like your best friend talks....she makes you feel as if she were sitting with you at your kitchen table, or in your living room. What a treasure!
