Publisher's Summary

It starts almost by accident: the women who buy their knitting needles and wool from Georgia Walker's little yarn shop linger for advice, for a coffee, for a chat and before they know it, every Friday night is knitting night.

And as the needles clack, and the garments grow, the conversation moves on from patterns and yarn to life, love and everything. They may be different ages, from different backgrounds and facing different problems, but they are drawn together by threads of affection that prove as durable as the sweaters they knit.

A stitch in time

Thoroughly enjoyed walking my dogs each day and listening to this engaging story, it was only probably a little embarrassing when I cried during the final chapters ... I think people i passed on my walk must have thought i was going through a serious relationship break up ....

Maybe it is me…

I just could not get into this book. Because of the good reviews, I tried and tried but I just felt the story went around and around and got nowhere. Had to give up.

Excellent

What a delightful story of an everyday single mother struggling and doing her utmost for her family whilst working full time. The characters in the club were funny and covered all walks of life. An easy listen tear jerker but delightful story

once the scene was set I couldn't stop

Took a bit of effort at the start to get my head around everyone but after that I couldn't stop listening. Eager to know what's next.

Enjoyable

This was a clever story incorporating much more than knitting. Friendships, life's concerns , problems and relationships.

simple story of the human experience.

Simple story of the human experience. The ending was a little abrupt but the story was complete. Story not complex but nice.

I loved this story. I’m a knitter so the setting was very enjoyable for me. Very relatable characters.

Totally boring

Couldn't get through the book. Was very slow and there was very little tension to keep the reader engaged. Was disappointed in this book.
