The Friday Night Knitting Club
Original airdate: January 11, 2008
About the book: “Knitting is booming! An old tradition made new, taken up by movie stars and teenagers and busy career women alike.
There is something so soothing and stress-relieving as the needles click clack; you can absolutely feel the tension in the brain unwind. My goal for the novel was to provide the reader with a bit of a respite by sharing the imaginary world of Walker and Daughter, a cozy knitting shop nestled in New York City’s bustling Upper West Side. It is here that readers can put aside their cares, enjoying the company of single mom and store owner Georgia Walker, her young daughter Dakota, their grandmotherly friend Anita, and the handful of smart, funny, tough women who comprise The Friday Night Knitting Club.” – Kate Jacobs
