"It's five years since the Friday Night Knitting Club began, and the members mourned the sudden loss of their dear friend Georgia, but the Walker and Daughter knitting store on Manhattan's Upper West Side is still going strong. Drawn together by their love for Georgia's daughter Dakota, and the sense of family the club provides, each knitter is struggling with new challenges: for Catherine, finding love after divorce; for Darwin, newborn twins; for Lucie, being both single mum and carer for her elderly mother, and for Anita, marriage to her childhood sweetheart over the objections of her grown-up children."--Publisher description.

Work Description
Now a freshman at NYU, Dakota Walker continues to work part-time at the Manhattan kitting store founded by her mother, Georgia. Dakota has come to rely on the members of the Friday Night Knitting Club for help, even as they struggle with the new challenges for Catherine, finding love after divorce; for Darwin, the hope for a family; for Lucie, being both a single mom and a caregiver for her elderly mother; and for seventy-something Anita, a proposal of marriage from her sweetheart Marty, that provokes the objections of her grown children. As the club's projects - an afghan, baby booties, a wedding coat - are pieced together, so is their understanding of the patterns underlying the stresses and joys of being a mother, wife, daughter, and friend. Because it isn't the difficulty of the garment that makes you a great knitter, it's the care and attention you bring to the craft - as well as how you adapt to surprises.
