Synopsis

You might have heard about a wonderful little yarn store in downtown Seattle. Debbie Macomber can take you there!

In the year since it opened, A Good Yarn has thrived -- and so has Lydia Hoffman, the owner. A lot of that is due to Brad Goetz. But when Brad's ex-wife reappears, Lydia is suddenly afraid to trust her newfound happiness. Elise Beaumont joins one of Lydia's popular knitting classes. Living with her daughter, Aurora, Elise learns that her onetime husband plans to visit and that Aurora wants a relationship with her father, regardless of how Elise feels about him. Bethanne Hamlin is facing the fallout from a divorce and joins the knitting class as the first step in her effort to recover a sense of dignity and hope. Courtney Pulanski is a depressed and overweight teenager. She's staying with her grandmother, who's trying to help by taking her to the knitting class at A Good Yarn.

Four women, brought together by the craft of knitting, find companionship and comfort in each other. Who would've thought that knitting socks could change your life?

Debbie Macomber's "A Good Yarn" is a sequel to "The Shop on Blossom Street". Although I know nothing about knitting, I still loved both books because they focus on friendship, emotion and the daily challenges that women face. As always, Debbie can "knit" a good "yarn". A definite must read!

I got start with Twenty wishes by Debbie Macomber and enjoyed it so much that I wanted to read another book written by this author. I purchased A Good Yarn and read it in two days. Debbie Macomber is an excellent writer, her plots are down to earth and believable, just like real life. I also enjoyed the knitting instruction given in this book for the socks. I have now purchased 4 other of the Cedar Cove Series that she has written. Once I have read this entire series I intend to look into other books she has had published.

I love reading Debbie Macomber. Now she is writing a series about very special women in a knitting group. Being a knitter for years, I love reading books about knitting, as well as, a great book. This is a great book, as all of Debbie's are. You will fall in love with her characters and feel like you are there. The whole series is wonderful. Debbie is a knitter herself and now has a website with free patterns, chat about knitting and the book and has added patterns that the women have knit in her book. I loved reading this book and look forward, when I get a chance, to read the next in this series. You will love this book, I guarantee it! Make sure you can stay up all night once you start one Debbie's books.

The story was about ladies whose lives entwined through a knitting group and became good friends. After you finished the book, you were eager to read the next book, which dealt with some of the old and new characters. I am NEVER disappointed with any of Debbie Macomber books and I usually can't get enough of them. Thanks Debbie for keeping me to come back for more.
