{ "item_title" : "Knittitude", "item_author" : [" Megan Baldrige "], "item_description" : "Megan Baldrige is a poet who knits, or, a knitter who moonlights as a poet. In poetry, she does not usually rhyme; in knitting, sometimes her seams are a little unseemly. She loves putting ideas, questions and noticings about knitting into verse. Finally-a collection of clever, funny, wistful, undeniably true insights into the addictive folly that we sufferers know of as knitting. The mad thoughts behind those rhythmic clicks have been translated into purls of wisdom. Guaranteed to leave you in stitches Keiko Ohnuma writer, editor and knitter Knitting - changing a strand of yarn into a pair of socks, a sweater, a blanket - contains a sort of magic. Creating poetry contains that same magic. Megan Baldrige's poems about knitting conjure a paranormal world usually reserved for knitters that can now be shared by the rest of us. Larry Schulte, poet If you took Megan Baldrige's knitting poems for pure light-hearted wit and whimsy, you were misled. Like knitting itself, her poetry appears humble and unpretentious. But the wit is always sharp, forthright. And her themes are deeply meaningful. This is a collection about knitting, yes. But that is only half of it. These poems are guides for living.
