Alanna Okun knows that crafting keeps her anxiety at bay. She knows that no one will ever be as good a knitting teacher as her beloved grandmother. And she knows that even when we can’t control anything else, we can at least control the sticks, string and fabric right in front of us.

Okun has written a book that will speak to anyone who has said to themselves, or to everyone within earshot, “I made that.”
