I just want to say how much I enjoyed this discussion. My knitting book club will be reading her book Unraveling this summer and I cannot wait–I already have the audio. As she was telling her story, it really reminded me of the current book we are reading: Fabric of Civilization by Virginia Postrel. Such a fascinating look into the history and world of fabric. With the mention of color, The Secret Lives of Color, by Kassia St. Clair is a fun exploration into colors. Each color has its own essay so it’s something you can just pick up on a whim or when a color interests you. Not only do I love books, but also these studies into very specific topics. A Perfect Red by Amy Butler Greenfield I think will be moving up my TBR as it was referenced in Fabric of Civilization and I’m more curious about the red bugs.
