Love
is the Thread
A Knitting Friendship
a memoir by
Leslie Moïse, Ph.D.
Sustained by the metaphor of knitting, the
memoir Love is the Thread traces the way one spiritual
friendship can change all our relationships, with strangers and friends,
from friends to family, and beyond.
Love is the Thread centers on
the friendship between two women, one snared in a life-long struggle with
bipolar disorder, the other reweaving her life after an abusive
relationship. Spirituality, encounters with nature, and vacations on the
Delaware shore form the threads of a friendship as varied and closely knit
as the stitches in a handmade sweater.
From the discovery of hidden colors in fresh
snow to the satisfaction of teaching a young nephew to knit, Love is
the Thread savors life's small glories, ultimate challenges, and
all the moments of humor and tenderness in between.
"Love is the Thread
is a heartfelt exploration of
both the power of knitting and
the power of friendship
to bring together new stitches
throughout a life.
If you enjoy examining
the connections between
what our hands do
and how our minds work,
you"ll love this book."
Shannon Okey Knit designer
"Many people experience
strong friendships.
Few people have the context
to
understand the profound teachings
and varied gifts that friends can give
when 'love is the thread' that
knits the friendship together....
this book
provides that insight.
Love is the Thread is
beautifully
written,
chock full of wisdom and humor,
and a nakedly honest and human
memoir.
It's a GREAT read!"
