Stories in Stitches; A Memoir in Knitting

Come along for a Knit & Natter session with Debbie Zawinski, author of Stories in Stitches; A Memoir in Knitting. A captivating tale of Debbie's life through the lens of her favourite hobby, this event is a must for knitting lovers in the area. Bring your latest project, have a cuppa and chat with the author herself while you work away!

From the book: I have always had the feeling that we are surrounded by stories. Every item in our homes has a story to tell with attendant memories - every living thing has its own fascinating autobiography. I believe that the things we make have some of the most interesting stories to tell of all: the source of the materials; the inspiration and purpose of the item created; the journey of the maker in its creation. Knitting is empowering. It's importance is unrelated to the skill of the knitter or the complexity of the pattern attempted. The finished article will inevitably embody something quintessentially unique to the individual maker.

Copies of Stories in Stitches will be available to buy at this event.
