Contemplative Knitting?

The sidebar on the Anchorass had a link to a book "contemplative Knitting"...and the Amazon page has other similar books: the Knitting Sutra, Mindful Knitting, Zen and the art of knitting...

I have an active mind, and have trouble concentrating even on prayer, which is where the rosary helps...

But I often crochet...I learned that if I crochet at medical conferences, I can sit thru the long boring lectures...

Right now I am crocheting a light weight afghan while baby sitting...you can only take so many hours of Disney channel before your mind melts...
It helps...
