Purl and stitch: Empowering, healing, and reconnecting us to each other and ourselves In a fractured world plagued by anxiety and loneliness, knitting is coming to the rescue of people from all walks of life. Economist and lifelong knitter Loretta Napoleoni unveils the hidden power of the purl and stitch mantra: an essential tool for the survival of our species, a means for women to influence history, a soothing activity to calm us, and a powerful metaphor of life. This book is a voyage through our history following the yarn of social, economic and political changes - from ancient Egypt and Peru to modern Mongolia, from the spinning bees of the American Revolution to the knitting spies of World War II, and from the hippies' rejection of consumerism to yarnbombing protests against climate change. For the author it is also a personal journey of discovery and salvation, drawing on the wisdom her grandmother passed along as they knit together. Revealing recent discoveries in neuroscience, The Power of Knitting offers proof of the healing powers of knitting on our bodies and minds. Breaking through societal barriers, even nursing broken hearts, and helping to advance cutting-edge science, knitting is still a valuable instrument for navigating our daily lives. As a bonus, the book includes patterns for ten simple yet iconic projects that reflect the creative, empowering spirit of knitting, with complete instructions.Binding Type: Hardcover

A lot of quality filters for little cost.
Style: 16x20x1, Style: 16x20x1
Been using these for months, great quality. No issues what so ever. I compared price to the 2 main big box stores and this is the best for your bucks. You get a lot more and they are of the same quality. I used to get mine from a big box store with military discount of 10% and this is still a better deal. They fit exactly like the filter I took out, so size is the same. I live FL and run my AC constantly. These last about 2-3 months each. They do no lose their rigidity. They are built with very high quality material. They catch a lot of dust, you can see how dirty they are when replaced.
PROS
- great quality and last 2-3 months in my AC running constantly
- you get a lot for your money when compared to the big box stores
- catch a lot of dirt, filters are really dirty after use
- very rigid which makes it easy to installation
- reinforced wire mesh
CONS
- None

Top quality filters at a good price.
Style: 20x30x1
These filters are good quality. They are reinforced and hold their shape. They fit perfectly in my filter holder.
The thing I like is that the filters were bundled together and shipped in a sturdy box. Other filters I have ordered showed up in a flimsy box and were damaged.
