All the furor from that African indigo textile dyer artist, and he's literally not even mentioned in this book?

This memoir strue just the right balance between entertaining and toughy-provoking for me. I loved how the author interweaves her sweater-from-scratch journey with the exploration of bigger life issues. It never seemed forced. Highly recommend the audiobook version, narrated by the author.
