I enjoyed this book! I have been a sporadic reader of Laurie "Crazy Aunt Purl"'s blog, but this book gave me a lot of insight into where Laurie is coming from in her blog.

You definitely don't have to be a knitter to enjoy this book, but Laurie's infectious enthusiasm about knitting might make a knitter out of you anyway! I would say that this book is more a chronicle of Laurie's journey in adjusting to her divorce than a story about her discovering knitting. That said, she does include about 20 cute patterns, but most of her original patterns are also available on her blog.
