My 4 STAR Review TITLED: Crimson Yarn Trouble?
I loved the dedication by the author that said to Maryann who taught the left handed author to knit ! So sweet !
The Foundation:
The story opens with the Wednesday meeting at the Yarn to Be Wild shop and the Crazy Loopers are meeting. It's Nettie Silverloop's shop and she's getting tea ready for this favorite time with the group of knitters which includes gossip and companionship. It's an eclectic group:
Mabel Crispin comes next and she has big "news" which the talking cats Leo and Luna wonder about. They always seemed to be around which was a good thing ! Amelia and hubby Arthur Jenkins come in next. He's just there to make sure she got there okay ; they've been happily married for years. Arthur heads to the hardware story to see Henry and his affectionate dog, Gus. Greta Bell and then Olivia Sweetwater and within minutes Martin Fitzgerald trails in.
And then :
Suddenly after finding some unaccounted for strange but beautiful crimson yarn; they begin to use it for personal squares to add to a large Valentine's afghan. That's when some REALLY strange things begin to happen. Is that yarn Alive?
One of my favorite phrases is when Martin mentions that this town see to have a way of making you face things !!
Great surprises and heart warming conclusions.
I received an ARC from the author and this how I feel about it. P.S. Once again I loved the colorful eBook cover !
