About this ebook
One day out of the blue, Lonna found her life interrupted by delayed Post Traumatic Stress Disorder: the anxiety, sleeplessness, and ongoing chest pains were the legacy of the chaos that took over her life when her first husband’s brain tumour took hold and turned him into a stranger with a familiar face. During and after his illness she had so much on her plate that she just kept on pushing through life, fully occupied with a child to raise, bills to pay, and a life to rebuild. The old troubles were tucked away in the hopes that time would heal the wounds.
Well, time alone didn’t do it, and Just Keep Knitting is the result of Lonna's healing work: both the story it tells and the knitting projects that she created as she wrote her story.
This book will shine a light of hope so that perhaps, someday, there might be just enough light for someone else to find a way out of the dark.
** Knitters: additional project information is available on Ravelry, including notes on how to proceed if your eReader gives you grief.
Lonna Cunningham
Lonna Cunningham is a fibre artist, writer, and small holder who lives in rural Alberta with her family, some chickens, dogs, cats, sheep, and a cow or two. Her former career in Information Technology came to an abrupt end with the onset of Delayed Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in early 2011: you can read about her journey through trauma in her first book, Just Keep Knitting: a journey of healing through forgiveness, faith, and fibre. Lonna is also the author of The Rookie’s Field Guide to Supported Spinning, a how-to book for people who would like to be able to make pretty string with nothing more than a handful of fibre, a weighted stick, and a dish. Fibre artists will probably know Lonna as Frazzlehead, from Ravelry – and if you are a fibre artist who has not yet found ravelry.com, you need to check it out! There’s a wealth of information and a lot of interesting people hanging out there, Lonna included. Look her up – she’d love to hear from you.
