I was very disappointed with this book, maybe I had too high of expectations. It reached a point of being very predicatable and I lost all interest. I also got really sick of Georgia calling her daughter her little muffin girl--the term was used way too much. I did have Knit 2 on my WL but I cancelled it after finishing this one.

Rarely does a book coax tears from me... but this one did. Great story, interesting characters - esp loved Gran. Despite making me cry, it was a good ending. Looking forward to reading the second one to see where the characters go from here.

I was a tad disappointed with this book. I felt that it moved too slowly. It just didnt have that spark that left me not wanting to put it down. I did enjoy it though, just not as much as I thought I would.

I enjoyed this book about friendship and love. I especially liked the relationship between the main character, Georgia, and her daughter, Dakota. I will try to get the next book in the series called Knit Two. Want to see what happens when Dakota grows up!

Though the story is easy and fun to follow, I found this book predictable and a little okay already get on with it. The way the book ended was disappointing, it was kind of like the author got sick of writing so decided to end the book.
