Knitting by Heart: A Creative Journey for All Knitters - Paperback

by Renate Hiller (Author), Mikae Toma (Author), Claudio Rodriquez (Photographer)

Decades in the making, Knitting by Heart presents a living process of creation that can spark new ways of working for knitters at all levels. Inspired by the teachings of Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925), who sought to bring together practical and spiritual life in manifold ways, this is more than a pattern book or a manual of technique. Knitting by Heart takes knitters on an organically unfolding journey, moving from simple headbands and scarves to unique tunics, sweaters, and jackets made with natural fibers and plant-dyed colors, in a mood of loving devotion and spiritual striving. The result is both beautiful, functional clothing for the body, and refreshment for the soul. In an era of fast fashion and digital overwhelm, KNITTING BY HEART arrives as a soulful invitation to slow down, create with purpose, and reconnect to the ancient rhythm of handwork.
