Praise for The Friday Night Knitting Club
"An absolutely beautiful, deeply moving portrait of female friendship. You'll laugh and cry along with these characters, and if you're like me, you'll wish you knew how to knit."
Kristin Hannah, author of Firefly Lane
"If you are looking for an inviting group of gals to spend a few winter evenings with, pull up your afghan and snuggle in with The Friday Night Knitting Club…[It] makes you yearn for yarn, even if you're not a knitter."
USA Today
"This book's great—worth reading now."
Glamour Magazine
"If you like to write or read or knit, your first reaction to The Friday Night Knitting Club may be pure jealousy…Readers will come to root for nearly everyone in the sweetly diverse cast of characters."
Concord Monitor
"What begins as an unlikely hodgepodge of women soon evolves into an unbreakable sisterhood as the characters learn from each other's differences and bond over their love of knitting."
Vogue Knitting
"A Steel Magnolias for the 21st century."
Kirkus Reviews
"Poignant twists propel the plot and help the pacing find a pleasant rhythm."
Publishers Weekly
"A really great story."
Marie Claire
"Celebrates the power of women's independence and is essentially an urban counterpart to How to Make an American Quilt"
