My husband’s latest book! This one is for all of us, not just those in the corporate, military, or academic landscapes like most of his previous books. I think it is especially relevant now, given the state we are in, where we all need to build communities that feed our inner heroes. (My little contribution - editor.)

And the first reviews are also coming in.  

“Short yet powerful and incredibly insightful. A fantastic, smart guide to discovering the hero with’n us. I love it! Practical and thought-provoking, the kind of book that stays with you long after you’ve turned the last page.”

“Five stars out of five.”

“Slim but powerful... A jolting bit of reality...”

And more of Bosie’s glorious new Fair Isles and more have arrived! Every year, it takes my breath away just a bit when I handle her new sweaters for the first time. 100% wool and Made in Scotland, the Nor-easterly tip of Scotland.

Two New England companies have joined forces for a snappy new collaboration, Steele Canvas and Whalerknits. Both are Massachusetts companies, and both actually make their products right here in New England. This is a limited edition bundle and all four items are made of 100% cotton.

• SIGNAL Rollneck Sweater

• Medium SIGNAL Tote

• Mini SIGNAL Tote

• SIGNAL Seedstitch Throw

• Signal Collection Bundle

And also from Mystic Knotwork, their coasters and trivets. I usually go for their more wild coaster colors, Pink and Lime Green, but for this season I am (trying) to stick to a more low-key and versatile Navy and Natural.
