A Knitter’s Handbook for Self-Discovery
by Liza Laird
This practical guide takes knitters of all levels on a fulfilling journey of self-discovery.
Using a unique combination of yoga philosophy, movements, meditations, breathing techniques and stitch patterns, Yoga of Yarn re-establishes our knitting practice on a new, stronger foundation -- a foundation that not only enhances our experience as knitters, but also helps us maintain a centered calm in every aspect of our lives.
No prior yoga experience is necessary. All you need is a body, a chair, and a sincere willingness to care for yourself and try new things that will help you knit with greater ease.
Find how simple movements can lighten your mind and body. Explore different breathing techniques for calmer knitting. Discover knitting patterns written for knitters who want to explore meditation as they stitch.
