註釋Mindful Knitting contains ten original and enjoyable knitting projects, each complemented by a meditation exercise.

As knitters know the craft is much more than the finished project. By looking at the parallels between knitting and meditation--how simple repetitive actions can lead to a grater connection with the world--this knitting book shows you how to enrich your life by combining the two.

Author Tara Jon Manning, a noted knitwear designer and practicing Buddhist, explores the spiritual rewards of knitting:
  • Bring inner serenity to your knitting practice--and everyday activities
  • Fully appreciate the objects you knit, making eah more significant and satisfying
  • Connect to others by donating to charities, creating gifts, or knitting with a group.
To help with with your knitting projects, Mindful knitting includes clearly written patterns, tips for intuitive knitting, and a helpful glossary of knitting techniques and resources. Whether you're an advanced or a beginning knitter or a new or seasoned meditator, this Buddhist knitting book will help you develop a renewed sense of self and an increased appreciation of the world around you.
