"Beautiful Bowl! I bought this for my daughter who has become quite the knitter this past year. Before I got her this bowl, her yarn would get tangled and roll all over the place. This keeps her yarn ball in one place and allows the yarn to spool out smoothly. This is so nice I don't mind it sitting around the house. It seems to be made of high quality rosewood with a very nice finish. I will buy more for her other colors. Highly recommend!" - Scott M.
"I LOVE this yarn bowl! My husband bought it for me as a gift and I'm so glad he did his homework on this--it's beautiful and super high quality. It's also the perfect size for crocheting efficiently. It's incredibly smooth and handmade, which makes me feel like I'm making something special when using it--rather than the lower quality alternative options out there. I'm so excited about this purchase and I'm recommending it to all of my friends." - D

8. People Knitting: A Century of Photographs
Feature
Princeton Architectural PressDescription
People Knitting is a charming tribute in vintage photographs and printed ephemera to the ever-popular, often all-consuming, craft of knitting. When women posed with their knitting in the earliest nineteenth-century photographs, it demonstrated their virtue and skill as homemakers. Later, knitting became fashionable among the wealthy as a sign of culture and artistic ability. During the two world wars, images of nurses, soldiers, prisoners, and even knitting clubs composed of very serious small boysall with heads bent down, intent on knitting items (especially socks) for the troopsabounded. In the 1950s and 1960s, as snapshots became ubiquitous, knitters took on a jauntier air, posing with handiwork held proudly aloft. People Knitting is a quirky and fascinating gift for the knitter in your life.9.
