I loved the first book, thought the second was good, but this is just boring and not nearly as interesting as the others, there will not be a fourth book for me, it will be a waste of my time, don't worry if you don't get a copy of this one, it just misses this mark for me.

The Third in the Knitting Series, I'll admit not the best. Very silly and different from the first two novels but still worth reading as the story comes to a close. Kate Jacobs brings the saga to end just the way I would have and would not have expected. There are many surprises done very well. Jacobs really knows how to write and knows each of the characters as if they are her own friends. Definitely read this today!

This is the third book in Kate Jacob's Friday Night Knitting Club series. Although it doesn't have the same magic as the first book, I believe I liked it a bit better than the second book, Knit Two. This story focuses mostly on Dakota and the challenges she faces as she's in college on the border of childhood and adulthood. She has an opportunity to have a winter internship in a prestigious hotel's kitchen, but will she sacrifice a trip her dad's been planning to Scotland to take her and her mother's family to visit Gran? Anita's wedding to Marty keeps getting postponed due to shenanigans from her son Nathan, will they finally tie the knot? Catherine needs to reconcile her feelings for Marco, the Italian winemaker she met in the second book. Peri needs to decide if being part owner of Walker & Daughter is worth giving up her dreams to put Peri's Pocketbook on the map. The backdrop of the story is the holiday season between Thanksgiving and New Year's, which I think helped the book keep a decent pace because it had a built-in time frame. It is a VERY quick read, which I think helped me enjoy this story more than Knit Two since this one didn't suffer from getting bogged down, though I didn't like how this one spent most of the time on really just on Dakota. As with the second book though, I felt that this one short-changed some of the characters, KC in particular who isn't really there at all except to whine a few times. I would have preferred a longer book that spread out the focuses as equally as possible on the other club members. Still, it was nice to catch up with these characters, and if there is a fourth book, I'll be happy to read it!
