"Traveling to meet all of these people-- to see where they work, to meet those closest to them, to try on the knit items they had described to me over email, to look at the views from their windows, to check out their yarn supplies, to get fed by them or take them out to lunch-- was an immersive, exhilarating, and intimate experience. I got to hear what drew them to knitting, to understand how their work had developed, and to guess with them at why knitting has gotten so popular." -Sabrina Gschwandtner
