Knitting Memories by Lela Nargi

I picked up this sweet little book at the Knitters Review retreat last fall, read a tiny bit of it, and then lost it in one of the piles of unread books in my house.  I picked it up again, and found it to be great subway reading.  As is generally the case, some of the essays shine out from the rest.  I particularly liked Lela’s essay, Clara’s essay, and the piece called "Virginia" by non-knitter Cedric Chatterly.  As is also generally the case, a few of the essays fell a bit flat for me.  I can accept that, though–I’m just so happy to see outlets for writing about knitting and its role in our culture.
