Crewel World by Monica Ferris
3.0
3.5 stars
In my opinion, this was a better-than-average knitting mystery! I like the main circle of characters, and there aren't too many annoying, chirping, gossipy women in the book that are too reminiscent of reality. The small town in which this cozy mystery takes place is appealing in a way similar to Stars Hollow in "Gilmore Girls" and Bluebell in "Hart of Dixie," except in Minnesota, which has the cold weather to justify all the knitting.
This book is has a lot of cross-stitch references, which I probably didn't "get," but it also has a decent amount of knitting allusions as well.
