A Deadly Yarn (Knitting Mysteries, No. 3) 21 reviews
Maggie Sefton
Berkley, 2006
great cozy mystery for the avid knitter
+ Relaxing read
If I'm not knitting wool, I'm spinning it or weaving it. When I take the time to read, if I don't read a non-fiction about something in the fiber arts, I read a mystery novel.
This is another good Maggie Sefton mystery and it kept me reading it every free moment I could spare. I won't spoil ...

"Knit on, with confidence and hope, through all crises."
+ ALMOST AS GOOD AS YARN
Words almost fail me. KnitLit the Third is so good, I'm handing it around to people who don't even care about knitting. This book has stories written about the extraordinary in the ordinary; an adopted child from China, a magical encounter with a ruffed grouse, a mother, a daughter, the loss of ...

Knit one, Kill two
+ A cozy cozy!
+ A cute read.
I have been knitting for years, and Maggie Sefton has put a spin on the art. I love the bonus of a recipe and a pattern at the end of the book. The knitting mysteries keep me reading, it's hard to put it down once you get started.

Knitting Memories: Reflections on the Knitter's Life1 review
Voyageur Press, 2006
Stories for knitters...and those who love them.
Knitting is more than just a craft or the creation of something to wear. Between the knitter and yarn there is a tactile experience and a time of reflection, a chance to meditate or let the mind wander as it will. Between the knitter and the knitting is a relationship, and it is this that Lela ...

A friend told me I would like this book. She was wrong--I loved it!. The four knitters are well-drawn, the mystery intriguing, and the seaside town one I want to live in. I thought the author's approach to a series was definitely a cut above the others I've read. And the writing style is ...
