A Life In Stitches

Synopsis

From creating her very first sweater, an electric blue disaster that led to an unlikely bonding between father and daughter, to the yellow afghan that caused a break-up (and, ultimately, a breakthrough) and discovering that her love of knitting pales next to actual, true love, Rachael Herron's ability to spin wonderful yarns full of love, loss and laughter is addictive. Whether she's huddled with her cat Digit after a close encounter in a treehouse or reminiscing about her mother's idyllic New Zealand childhood while keeping vigil at her bedside, Herron shows that when life unravels there's always a way to knit it back together again, often into something even better.
