These traditional rhymes and spells invite you to refocus your mind and cultivate a true state of mindfulness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind this unique project are two complementary authors: Meri Mort, a yoga teacher and writer, and Katinka Sarjanoja, a knitwear designer. Together, they have created a distinctive collection, rooted in the world of mysticism and folklore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnitting as the art of care\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThose who knit know it well: there is something meditative about the movement of the needles. When the mind settles on the yarn and the stitches, time takes on a different texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd when you knit for someone you love, it’s something else entirely. Memories of paths travelled together slip into a pair of socks; a pair of mittens to give away absorbs all the tenderness one feels for the hands they will warm; a shawl knitted for a parent carries within it gratitude for a gentle, sheltered childhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut magic can also be knitted for oneself. The stitches of the Serpent Socks can be imbued with courage in the face of change; the Mourning Socks can accompany a process of inner healing; and the cheerful Yoga Socks invite you to explore your relationship with joy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is to be read, felt and knitted at your own pace, according to what resonates within you.
