In it she reminds him of her love and makes one final request. An impossible request — I want you to marry again. She tells him he shouldn’t spend the years he has left grieving her. And to that end she’s chosen three women she asks him to consider. First on Hannah’s list is her cousin, Winter Adams, a trained chef who owns a café on Seattle’s Blossom Street. The second is Leanne Lancaster, Hannah’s oncology nurse. But the third name is one he’s not familiar with - Macy Roth.

As good as the first book
I absolutely loved Alix from book one, and interesting as the new characters are, none appeals me like Alix. She and the other characters from book one are back as guests in book two, but we have three new main characters.
Elise is a retired librarian, and struggling to fill the hours. Bethanne is struggling with her recent divorce and teenaged daughter. Courtney is struggling with her weight and being the new girl in town. And Lydia and her family have a new set of problems.
We know from the beginning that they will all find their solutions in each other and in knitting, but it's nice to travel the journey with them.

A Nice Story
Although I'm usually the Thriller type, I got this book because of the knitting content - yes, I knit socks!!! A nice, pleasant story with nothing to offend anyone & a happy ending too!! I would recommend this book to readers of light fiction who just want to relax & be entertained.

Knitting and Friendships Forage On
Another new group of beginning knitters, a group who looks like they won't be a group to bond. Their project is learning to knit socks. The socks they knit and the the people they knit them for forage a strong bond. Unexpected friendships, disappointments and hurt feelings and the gift of forgiveness are wonderful ingredients for a charming story. I truly enjoyed this book. I have never knitted, but after going through the loss of my husband and having an extremely hard time I think I will find a "Good Yarn" place and learn how to knit. Maybe, I can heal too.

Easy listening story
The equivalent of easy listening music, this pleasant story is engaging and enjoyable. The plot is not complicated, the characters are somewhat two dimensional, and you know the conclusion is coming from a mile away. If you like to knit, all the better!
