I’m a knitter and have traveled to most of Canada. I thoroughly enjoyed Sylvia’s book.

I’m not sure what this book was supposed to be - the blurb made it sound like a novel about the history of knitting in Canada. Instead, it was part memoir part history of the Cowichan sweater and Coast Salish knitters. 

In the end, I don’t think it did a good job of either. There wasn’t really a fully fleshed out narrative or story, the book read like snippets of a half finished novel. 

They also completely missed out on the territories…
