Soothing Stitches: Knits for a Quiet Mind, by Pauliina Kuunsola, features 12 calming knitting patterns that encourage you to slow down. The collection includes both garments and accessories, focusing on simple yet beautiful constructions and stitch patterns—keeping your hands engaged while your mind finds stillness. Woven among the pages are gentle words that echo the rhythm of knitting — poetic reflections and a touch of mindful meditation.
Pick up your needles, take a deep breath, and cast on. Pauliina Kuunsola is a knitwear designer based in Finland.
