i just started to read knitting w/out tears and i LOVE it!!! i was someone who knitted as a kid and in my teens but didn't really keep knitting that much until moved back to newfoundland in 2000.. then, i quit smoking about 1 1/2 years ago and used it as diversion therapy..so i didn't know who she was until i joined the glbt knitting group and heard people talking about her .. i read the almanac and now w/out tears and i wish i had read her before she passed on so that i could contact her and tell her how great she is..she has put a whole new spin on how i "see" knitting
