Free-Range Knitter

The author of Yarn Harlot returns with more hilarious personal stories about all the ups and downs of being a knitter.Stephanie Pearl-McPhee (a.k.a. the Yarn Harlot) returns to pen another hilarious, insightful, and poignant collection of essays surrounding her favorite topics: knitting, knitters, and what happens when you get those two things anywhere near ordinary people. Free-Range Knitters shares stories of knitting horrors and triumphs and knitting successes and defeats, but, mostly, it shares stories about the human condition that ring true for everyone-especially if you have to have a rather large amount of yarn in your house.Praise for Yarn Harlot'Stephanie Pearl-McPhee turns both typical and unique knitting experiences into very funny and articulate prose.' -Meg Swansen, Schoolhouse Press'I laughed until my stitches fell helplessly from my needles!' -Lucy Neatby, author of Cool Socks Warm Feet'A sort of David Sedaris-like take on knitting-laugh-out-loud funny most of the time and poignantly reflective when it's not cracking you up.' -Library Journal
