This Thing of Paper is Karie's first physical book.

Inspired by her lifelong love of books and manuscripts, the designer and writer Karie Westermann invites you on a journey from medieval monasteries to contemporary libraries, exploring the connections between books and knitting.

This Thing of Paper is a stunning collection of eleven knitting patterns, accompanied by thought-provoking and personal essays, atmospheric photographs, and practical knitting advice.

Drawing fascinating parallels between two enduring forms of self-expression, this book will strike a chord with book lovers, readers, and knitters everywhere.

Officially the first knitting book to be added to the Gutenberg Museum's archive of book history.
