Elizabeth Caush who lives in Hampshire UK has just published
her first book about the
healing power of creativity and craft, specifically that of knitting. She
recently came to give a talk to my group at the day services where I work.
Elizabeth brought along her books, her story and her wonderful samples for the
book. I thought her use of colour to be stunning, bold and vibrant, and the
simplicity of the patterns which turn into modern throws, cushions and bed
runners is amazing. So as you are aware I do get tempted by all sorts of new
projects, but no way with knitting, since I grew up knitting my own school
jumpers and my last attempt was being talked into making a shawl for my
grandson, BUT yet again the ideas in the book are so simple yet the results so
satisfying that I could get tempted.
Elizabeth
is promoting her book at the moment, so if you have a group that you think
would be interested in the Hampshire or specifically the Portsmouth area do
contact her.
