Faerie Knitting: 14 Tales of Love and Magic by Alice Hoffman, Lisa Hoffman

3.0

Faerie Knitting is a collection of stories of love, loss, trust and perseverance. Woven into the plot of each tale is a garment or accessory inspired by the tale’s heroine along with an original pattern to make the garment for yourself.

I read this book in about an hour. The stories, while well written and sweet, are all super short and oversimplified. I used to love to knit but I haven’t had the time to knit in about three years. It’s a hobby that I would love to return to and there are a couple of patterns in this book that I may try soon.

If you enjoy knitting and fantasy tales then you’d probably really enjoy this book. Personally, I would’ve preferred the stories to be a tad longer with a bit more plot.

“Writing and knitting share many elements in creating “whole cloth” out of imagination.”
