Craft longer, stronger, and smarter — this pocket-sized guide is your essential companion for pain-free making.

Whether you knit, crochet, spin, dye, or weave, repetitive crafting can take a real toll on your body over time.

Inside you’ll find clear explanations of common crafting-related conditions like tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and repetitive strain injury, alongside strategies to avoid them before they start. The book covers warm-up and cool-down routines, posture guidance, advice on choosing tools and materials that work with your body, and strengthening exercises to build long-term resilience.
