I recently finished reading The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs.  It is a cute book about a group of women brought together in a small knitting shop on the upper-west side of New York City.  They come from very different backgrounds but, through a common hobby, form bonds through the ups and downs of life. Each chapter changes characters (a theme I love in books as mentioned previously) and really lets you get to know each of the women and their story.

A great book to curl up on the couch with on a blustery day! Highly recommend!

p.s. I also found out there are two follow-up novels to the original one - Knit Two and Knit the Season - I'm anxious to pick up one or both at the library ASAP.
