My favorite quote is:

"You spent hours making something you could buy in five minutes at Target." So true, and so insightful, because it shows how totally theraputic and soul-completing knitting can be.

That's a great article - makes me want to cast on my 60 and divide evenly, that's for sure.

I thoroughly enjoyed this article as well. It tickles me that big publications are taking notice of knitting... or maybe I'm finally taking notice that they are.
