This lighthearted, philosophical look at the current knitting craze views its popularity as third-wave feminism in action. Part how-to, part social criticism, it addresses such issues as the appropriateness of knitting in public, sharing needles, and the use of natural versus synthetic yarns. A dozen knitting patterns for hot water bottle covers, scarves, baby clothes, and doggie sweaters are also included.
In 2003, Stephenie Meyer had a dream about a vampire and a girl who were in love. When she started writing down the tale the next morning, she had no idea that by the end of that year, it would make her the Cinderella of the young adult publishing world. Meyer's debut novel, Twilight, became an overnight best seller, making the stay-at-home mother a publishing sensation. With millions of copies of the series sold worldwide and translations in more than three-dozen languages, there is no disputing Meyer's popularity among teens and adults alike.
