Descriere magazin:
A celebration of the beauty and power of crochet--specifically, the life-changing benefits this fiber art has brought to one extraordinary boy, 11-year-old crocheting prodigy Jonah Larson. As his tens of thousands of crochet friends already know, Jonah can crochet anything, including a cowl that has become his signature piece, bright afghans, intricate doilies, fashionable hats, and stuffed animals. A worldwide audience follows his every stitch. Jonah has won over fifty awards for his work, been featured in leading crochet publications, and is partnering with a major yarn company for the creation of new projects and online tutorials. In short, Jonah has been credited for lighting the crochet community on fire, and he is proud to help spread the word--crochet is anything but a dying art. What Jonah\'s crochet friends may not already know, and what Jonah would like to share with them and young people everywhere, is that through crochet he is also piecing together a pattern for his life, a pattern that he has now turned into the title of his first book, Hello, Crochet Friends Making Art, Being Mindful, Giving Back: Do What Makes You Happy. Woven into Jonah\'s beautifully photographed and detailed autobiography are three important themes: Making Art. Jonah welcomes readers into his process, sharing everything from his preferred crocheting atmosphere--end of sofa, lights dimmed, close to his mom--to his favorite stitches and yarns. How can Jonah crochet so quickly? He writes, "It\'s like breathing to me." Being Mindful. For many years, school was a place where Jonah, despite excelling academically, kept getting into trouble--sometimes big trouble. Jonah writes, ..".nothing seemed to be working..." to make things better. Nothing, that is, until he discovered crochet. It was an uncommon interest for a kid his age and his gender, but Jonah didn\'t care. Crocheting calmed his mind and made him happy; and in fifth grade, his teacher invited him to bring his crocheting to school. Now Jonah could pick up a hook and some yarn and "crochet away" any urge to misbehave. Jonah writes, "I quickly noticed something I didn\'t expect or understand. When I was crocheting, I didn\'t feel jumpy or jittery. I didn\'t feel like I needed to do something to get attention. My mind was quiet, calm, and peaceful." Giving Back. Going viral has connected Jonah with new friends around the world, introduced life-changing opportunities, and, importantly to Jonah, created a more significant platform for giving back, including to the community in Ethiopia from which he was adopted. Before Jonah concludes with his bright smile and signature wave, there are fourteen bonus pages celebrating crochet. Jonah offers an introduction to the art, lists his "Favorites," and reveals an exclusive pattern for an identity-inspired dish cloth, one that he hopes that his crochet friends will create (and share ). The sample Jonah provides is crocheted using the colors of the Ethiopian flag--red, yellow, and green. Written with the same confidence, sincerity, and kindness that Jonah\'s crochet friends will recognize from his online tutorials, Hello, Crochet Friends offers its readers a celebration of a beautiful and powerful fiber art and another treasure from Jonah\'s hands. About the Author: Jonah Larson began crocheting at age five. Today, at age 11, Jonah has a significant social media following from around the world and is using his platform not just to share crocheting tutorials, but also to share his inspiring pattern for life. Jonah has crocheted thousands of projects in his eleven years, but Hello, Crochet Friends! Making Art, Being Mindful, Giving Back: Do What Makes You Happy is his first book. Jonah lives with his family in La Crosse, WI. You can follow Jonah online @jonahhands and view his tutorials on YouTube. Jennifer Larson, Jonah\'s mother, does not crochet. In fact, the only hooks she picks up are the ones Jonah leaves lying around the house! Jennifer, a former hospital administrator, supports her son in many ways, including her role as the co-author of his picture bo
