Synopsis

Since her only daughter left for college, widow Pamela Paterson has kept busy as associate editor of a craft magazine and founder of the Knit and Nibble knitting club in quaint Arborville, New Jersey. Now, she's trying out a new hobby—solving murders!

Pamela is hosting the next Knit and Nibble meeting and can't wait to liven up her otherwise empty home with colorful yarn, baking, and a little harmless gossip. She even recruits Amy Morgan, an old friend who recently moved to town, as the group's newest member. But on the night of the gathering, Amy doesn't show. Not until Pamela finds the woman dead outside—a knitting needle stabbed through the front of her handmade sweater . . .

Someone committed murder before taking off with Amy's knitting bag, and Pamela realizes that only she can spot the deadly details hidden in mysterious skeins. But when another murder occurs, naming the culprit—and living to spin the tale—will be more difficult than Pamela ever imagined . . .

Murder, She Knit is the first book in the Knit & Nibble Mystery series.

I tried. I really did. I couldn't finish reading this. The problems? (Minor spoilers may follow.) 1. Too many unnecessary scenes. There was a scene in which the main character did nothing but park a car. There was so much small talk about nothing that went nowhere. I felt like I was reading so much n......more

Murder, She Knit is a fun little book to read, though it took me quite a bit to get through the entire novel.
