SereKNITy: Peaceful Projects to Soothe and Inspire weaves mindful crafting and peaceful reflection into this simple, yet beautiful, collection of knitting and crochet patterns.
The projects here are not the complicated sweater patterns found in traditional knitting guides, but simple, beautiful objects anyone can create. Practical crafts, like fingerless gloves and mug cozies, are featured alongside more meditative patterns, like granny squares and crocheted flowers. Each is paired with an inspirational, intention-setting prompt and falls under an overarching theme-Color, Texture, or Structure-that encourages knitters and crocheters of all skill levels to be fully present in the moment.
Author and crafter Nikki Van De Car gently guides readers to look inward as they work, releasing their anxiety as they create something beautiful. For experienced knitters and novices alike, this is meditative crafting of the very best kind.

      Van De Car (What To Knit) encourages crafters to slow down and appreciate the process with a series of small- to medium-size projects that are straightforward enough to use for relaxation. Despite the insertion of the word knit into the title, the projects are evenly divided between knitting and crochet, and feature generic-yet-useful items such as fingerless gloves, hats, and small blankets. The "tips and meditations" interspersed throughout are directions for skills such as working in the round and casting on. Readers expecting guided meditation, as seen in other mindful-knitting volumes, may be disappointed. VERDICT Those looking for mindful crafting will find a superficial treatment of the topic here. Tara Jon Manning's Mindful Knitting is still the gold standard.
