Avid male knitting enthusiast Gene Throwe keeps the spirit of his late grandmother alive, defying gender stereotypes and finding purpose and deep connection through the seemingly mundane practice of needlework. His story unfolds alongside a documentation of the yarn-making process, culminating in a baptismal moment that mirrors Gene’s spiritual journey and search for hope.
