The Knitting Circle by Ann Hood

When I came across this book I had to read it just based on the title.  It was about the bonds of friendship that grew out of the struggles of life and knitting.  It was a quick satisfying read with a happy ending.  The author did capture the right feel when she wrote about knitting with a group of women (and men) and the meditative and healing properties of the craft of knitting.  No really it's true.  If you don't believe me pick up some knitting needles and yarn.  Actually I find when any group comes together with a common creative interest, you end up sharing a piece of yourself.  Those bonds are the hardest to break.
