As the knitter completes each page, another clue is revealed within their fabric, and by halfway through, the knitter is able to influence the outcome of the story by choosing to knit one here, drop a stitch there, etc. There really has been nothing like this in fiction, ever! |
I realize that it's a joke, but if they were willing to pull it off I'm pretty sure it would sell. Mystery quilt clubs (in which a new block is revealed each month) are wildly popular. If you know and respect your market, you can go a long way with innovative fibercraft ideas.
