Nonfiction. HTML:<p>Knitting as the new feminism? You bet. It's My Party and I'll Knit if I Want To is a lighthearted, philosophical look at why knitting is back in fashion and the fabulous women (and men!) embracing the lost arts of their grandmothers.</p> <p>Knitting is in a major revival. Knitters have been spotted in parliament, in pubs, at the cricket. And they're not just over 50. They're young, sassy, professional women. What is going on here?</p> <p>This is third wave feminism in action. The previous generation made the workplace the centre for action; ours is the home front. This is a feminism that enjoys a career but doesn't think that a career alone is enough. So we knit, cook, sew and build a better quality of life.</p> <p>Answering questions such as <i>Is it ok to knit in public? Is it ok to share needles?</i> and <i>natural vs synthetic?</i> Sharon Aris tells you how to knit yourself to happiness and truly embrace the world of your grandmother.</p>. Media Type: eBook.
