This week Kathy talks with Deborah Tomasello, author of Wrapped in Color: Stranded Knitting in the 21st Century. Deborah talks about growing up, learning to knit and rediscovering knitting in her adult life.

She also talks about bringing her book to the market and how stranded knitting can seem daunting but it is almost as simple as stockinette.
