Boys Don't Knit (in Public) by T.S. Easton
This was a cute story. It is about Ben, a teenager in Hampshire, England, who found himself in a situation that requires probation. In addition to this probation, he has to take a class at the community college, keep a journal, and give back to the community.
For his class at the community college, he ends up choosing knitting because he thinks his English teacher will be teaching the class. Unfortunately, this is not the case. However, Ben is a natural knitter. So good, in fact, that he enters a knitting contest.
What gives this book heart is Ben's life in general. He deals with embarrassing parents, girl problems, crazy friends, and crushing on his teacher. Ben's reaction to it all is sweet and is definitely what made this book worth reading.
