This was such an interesting way to follow victims and survivors of the Holocaust by connecting them through knitwear. It was very thoroughly researched and included accounts from across the board. From Kinder Transport children to survivors of Auschwitz and Sobibor, this book looked at all aspects of the lives of the young women it follows. My only small complaint was that listening to the audiobook, I sometimes mixed up which story belonged to which person.

Amazing and unique telling of the lives of 4 girls and their families during the Holocaust. The story is told around a red sweater that they each owned. It also tells how their survival was partly due to their ability to knit and produce garments for the Nazi's during the Holocaust.
