Description - Bliss Adair and the First Rule of Knitting by Jean Mills

"Storytelling at its finest."
-- Terry Fallis, two-time winner of the Stephen Leacock Medal for Humor

Sixteen-year-old ace knitter and equation wiz, Bliss Adair, runs the Help Desk at her parents' yarn store and has no difficulty solving the most challenging math problems. But she discovers that helping her friends isn't anything like fixing a knitting mistake or prepping for a math contest. Should she get involved when giving advice could get her into trouble? But what if she doesn't? And does the first rule of knitting - don't look too far ahead - always apply to life?

For Bliss, coming of age means sorting out the complex threads of all sorts of situations in this contemporary read about friendships, mathematics, yarn, and love.
