The other day I got a message on Facebook from Kristin, who I know from a group of DaWanda sellers. She runs her own little store where you can buy fine cashmere beanie hats, among other things, and her first book was just launched at the book fair: "Stricken - Einfach, achtsam, kreativ" (Knitting - Simple, Mindful, Creative) from the Handarbeiten für die Seele series by Trinity Verlag.

It is a small, fine booklet, with carefully selected projects and accompanying knitting pattern. They are all projects that are very easy to implement and cozy knitting, such as a loop, a baby blanket and a hot water bottle cover. Not too complicated, but well suited for meditative knitting, because knitting is yoga. It makes you somehow satisfied just by looking at it and browsing through it.

A really successful and beautiful booklet to give as a gift for stressed girlfriends or mothers. Congratulations, Kristin!
