"I really enjoyed this book! Lots of things I love wrapped up in one book- knitting, cinnamon rolls, running, and a good mystery! I totally thought I had this one figured out but was pleasantly surprised by the way it ended. go to get the next book in the series today!"
— Sara (4 out of 5 stars)
" The best book ever, I have already purchased the rest of the series. "
— Kathryn, 2/17/2014" A cozy mystery series that revolves around a knitting store. This was a gift, and I wasn't overly excited about it because I'm not a knitter. However, the characters are very down-to-earth nice people - the sort of people I could see myself hanging out with. And the main character doesn't know anything about knitting at the start of the book, either, so I sort of learned about it along with her. I really enjoyed this. "
— Kitty, 2/7/2014" Good book, good mystery. "
— Michele, 2/5/2014" Silly, fun but lacking anything compelling or interesting. "
— Kara, 2/5/2014" A very light read, fast & uncomplicated. If you like knitting mysteries, it's fun. "
— Victoria, 2/4/2014" I love to knit so these were fascinating books to me. A mystery and a project and recipes. Yum! "
— Greta, 1/24/2014" not bad; a bit formulaic, but I liked the descriptions of the knitting shop. "
— Jennifer, 1/20/2014" Most of this book takes place in a yarn shop, so I would recommend it to knitters who like this type of mysteries. I don't think it would have much appeal for non-knitters. I did enjoy it though, and plan to read some of the sequels. "
— Beth, 1/18/2014" The fictional knit store reminded me of my real one. Kind of predictable but well done. "
— Donna, 1/16/2014" Fun read! I learned I can merge my two favorite hobbies: reading and knitting. "
— Michelle, 1/11/2014" You could read this just because the title is so amazing. Typical mass market murder mystery, but there is oh so much knitting!!! I read this on the NY subways and couldn't wrench myself away. Lolz. "
— Peggy, 1/3/2014" Nice, relaxing summer mind-fluff. "
— Fibrelady, 1/1/2014" Really liked it! The descriptive language, the characters, the plot, all first rate! "
— Angela, 12/19/2013" Another author to be discussed at mystery book group next month. Fun read--seemed to skip over most of the murder solving however. "
— Betsy, 12/10/2013" Kelly Flynn comes to Colorado for her aunt's funeral and ends up looking into her murder "
— Debbie, 10/26/2013" I listened to this as an audiobook. I found my mind wandering sometimes. It just couldn't keep my attention. It was an OK book. "
— Kathy, 8/30/2013" A mystery solving CPA who knits! The perfect light distracting read for when you're cooped up with a kitten who's wearing a cone and recovering from surgery and is not really interested in staying "quiet" for any period of time.... "
— Felicia, 3/30/2013" An Accountant who learns to knit and solves a mystery. A quick fun read. "

— Ty, 11/16/2012" This book was such a slow moving book. I will try the next one in the series but I'm not optimistic. "
— Kim, 5/19/2012" One of my local yarn shops started reading this book, then discussing in a weekly knitting group. I tried, but this book was awful. I got to chapter 3 and gave up. Such contrived, childish writing! Awful! "
— Rosemary, 3/6/2012" Fun easy read. I liked the story line and her characters...and I love the descriptions of the knitting items!! "
— Liz, 2/2/2012" i liked them easy top read "
