I was poking around Amazon this afternoon and found the book Knit in Comfort. I started thinking to myself: why do I see so many novels about women finding themselves through knitting? I thought, why don't I write the less dramatic book about a woman finding her friends through knitting. Then I realized what I was saying.
I'm that woman.
I moved to the city, started reading all the time and realized I was only living in my head. To get out of my head, I taught myself how to knit, and I started finding knitting groups to be social. I met friends, awesome friends that I've had for a while now. I had some awesome experiences (remember the yarn bus, the first Rhinebeck experience, and moving the stash to Stan's?).
Looks like knitting is a life changer after all. Even if it isn't as touchy feely as all those novels make it seem.
I wonder if a non-touchy feely knitting life changing book would sell. Probably not. I'll bet a book that describes the intersection of dating and knitting would be hilarious and sell quite well though. Call it "When to Flash Your Stash."

i'd buy it, and do makeup for the movie it will obviously eventually become
Can I pre-order that on Amazon?
Folks, it's going to have to be a compliation book. I think everyone from SNB should write or dictate at least one story for it. :)
