[MS S TILLETT]

Have any of you purchased the book yet?  I'd love to have it in Braille.  I wonder if he would consider sending it to National Braille Press?

  A part of frugal households may be to create your own clothing. Or
  perhaps you would like to make blankets or throws. Or just maybe you
  simply want something to keep your hands busy while watching
  television.

  Personally, I am astonished to watch my wife knit some truly
  extraordinary items while she relaxes at home. She finds knitting to
  be a huge release of tension from her demanding job as an
  anesthesiologist--and on the salary scale here in Ukraine, saving
  money is also important.

  Thus, when I ran across an article about a blind gentleman who taught
  himself to knit and who then wrote a book for beginners that can be
  used by the visually impaired or by anyone else to learn the basic
  techniques, I was fascinated. The book is sold as a downloadable ebook
  either in BRF (Braille Ready Format) or as a large-text Acrobat file
  by Lion Yarn Company.

  The article about it is at
  http://www.statesmanjournal.com/article/20100307/COLUMN0807/3070357/1126

  The ebook is available at
  http://www.lionbrand.com/6030/InventoryPage/1418804/1.html

  I hope you may find it helpful if you have an interest.

  David
