Following the beloved #1 New York Times bestseller The Friday Night Knitting Club is this charming story of sisterhood. At the Manhattan knitting store founded by Georgia Walker, the members of the Friday Night Knitting Club—including Georgia’s college-age daughter, Dakota—rely on each other for help, even as they struggle with new challenges: for Catherine, finding love after divorce; for Darwin, the hope for a family; for Lucie, being both a single mom and a caregiver for her elderly mother; and for seventy-something Anita, a proposal of marriage from her sweetheart, Marty, that provokes the objections of her grown children. As the club’s projects—an afghan, baby booties, a wedding coat—are pieced together, so is their understanding of the patterns underlying the stresses and joys of being a mother, wife, daughter, and friend. Because it isn’t the difficulty of the garment that makes you a great knitter: it’s the care and attention you bring to the craft, as well as how you adapt to surprises...

"I wasn't sure about this one in the beginning because it is a sequel and the first one was quite good. That being said, I really enjoyed this book. Nothing as dramatic as the first book happened but it was just so nice to read about the different characters again. The book ends on a hopeful note and now I can't wait to read the next one. I give this book 4.5 out of 5 stars."

" This was a good sequel for first book. It was interesting to see how each character reacted to Georgia's death. "
— Melissa, 2/15/2014" Much like number one. Easy reading. Good for summer reading. "
— Linda, 2/14/2014" Even though the previous book ended in a way that I didn't really care for, I still wanted to read the next book to find out what happens to the characters. Although I do still wish that the previous book hadn't ended the way it did, I can see how the author used that circumstance to really make some changes in these characters' lives. "
— Karen, 2/13/2014" I only read this one to continue the story from the 1st book Friday Night Knitting Club and get closure on the characters, but will probably skip the 3rd book of the series Knit the Season. "
— Dorothy, 2/6/2014" Cute but it was like they were trying to be like a yankee steel magnolias. You know what I am saying: All these woman focuses around one woman that died. She was the reason they were all friends in the first place... "
— Lindsey, 1/23/2014" The story line was predictable, but it was good. "
— Susan, 1/12/2014" Even though I wasn't thrilled with the prequel (Friday Night Knitting Club) this one delivered. A better story with more relate-able characters, perhaps they were just more developed? "
— Bridget, 1/6/2014" Quick read. I loved catching back up with the group in the book. "
— Tehia, 12/11/2013" Enjoyed it. From what I remember, I think I preferred this out of the 2, but the coincidence of Sarah was a bit far fetched. "
— Beth, 12/2/2013" Good but not as good as the first "
— Julia, 11/30/2013" It was a good book but I liked the first one better. "
— Jackie, 11/14/2013" When reading the first part of the book, I felt like it was "one of those not-so-good sequels", but it picked up later. I do enjoy the characters who continue from "Friday Night Knitting Club", and, of course all the knitting references! "
— Lucie, 11/12/2013" After finishing this book I've decided I need to learn how to knit! Anyone know how that could teach me??? "
— MaryC, 3/24/2013" As good as the first one! "
— Dianne, 6/23/2012" I think I actually liked this better than the first one. The story continues with the same characters from The Friday Night Knitting Club and how their lives have continued, changed and grew since the death of "Georgia Walker". It got a little weird with the trip to Italy but still enjoyable. "
— Maureen, 6/12/2012" Funny. Well written. Four books follow in sequence. Love that. Love the characters. "
— Margi, 1/7/2012" Continued to be a slow read, but have to admit, enjoying the characters and yes! Will read book #3! "
— CC, 12/5/2011" I was glad to see the sequel to the Friday Night Knitting Club at the library. It was just as good as the first book. "
— Sandy, 11/5/2011" I was thrilled to find there was a sequel! Ran right to the library and read it! I really feel like I'm in the club! "
— Jill, 9/8/2011" Not as good as the first, but I really like the relationships that develop. "
— Pickles, 8/3/2011" If you read The Friday Night Knitting Club then reading this book is like catching up with old friends. It's charming and enjoyable, but not as good as the first. "
— Audrey, 6/13/2011" Not as good as the original. "
— Jilly, 6/12/2011" I feel like she should have stopped with the second book. Found this one boring and too happy go lucky predictable. "
— April, 5/12/2011" This book was a great way to finish the story lines of the previous books. I just found it was 150 pages too short. It felt we were in the middle of the book but missed the major dilemma and then it just ended. Very awkward. "
— Brooke, 5/10/2011" A bit frustrating to read. More complicated than it needs to be. "
— Andrea, 4/24/2011" Lots of changes in the lives of the characters, even more so than in the previous book. I think I like where most of them ended up. "
— Karen, 4/19/2011" Feel good, fuzzy, warm reading :) "
— Deborah, 4/14/2011" I'm giving this book only two stars because even though I enjoyed the characters and got completely caught up in the story, the ending ruined it for me. There was just no good reason for it. "
— Pamela, 4/7/2011" I liked this as a follow up to Jacobs other books. I wouldn't recommend it for someone that does not know and like the characters from Friday Knit Knitting Club because this just follows those characters and closes the story for them. "
— Jen, 4/5/2011" Part 3 of series. The first two were WAY better! "
— Barb, 3/21/2011" This was the 3rd book in this series. Enjoyed the writing and knew the characters but it was not the best of the 3. <br/> "
— Chris, 3/9/2011" Quick and cute read. Everyone in the "Knit" series is settling into life and moving forward. Always nice to have a fun story to read. "
— Donna, 3/5/2011" These ladies crack me up! But I often wonder... am I really doing what I want to do with my life? Am I following my heart? <br/> <br/>Good narration on this one, too! "
— Angie, 3/4/2011" This book was rushed. There were a few plots that she set up to be hairy and all the sudden...solved. So the conflict that you expect to come about to solve the problem didn't happen. "
— Angie, 3/4/2011" I wonder why the author killed off the main and beloved character in the first book if her ghost is going to be such a main character in the subsequent books. There was no poinbt in killng Georgia Walker....stories would be just as heart warming, and probably more so, if she were alive still. "
— Gina, 3/2/2011" I still really enjoyed this book, but it wasn't quite up to par with its predecessors. Still really enjoyable, though! "
