I tend to get pretty excited about books. Although The Knitter's Book of Wool by Clara Parkes was published in 2009, I just found this excerpt on the TwistCollective.com! In The Softness Myth, Clara talks about some of my favorite things: selecting respective fibers for projects, measuring softness and defining micron counts. She even encourages knitters to seek out other breeds beside just Merino, comparing the loss of these other breeds to heirloom seeds! Very brilliant and inspiring. I enjoy thinking that there is a purpose for every type of fiber out there. Don't know how I missed this book in 2009, but I just ordered it!
