Customer Reviews

A great read!

I love this series. She just can't write them fast enough for me. They are a quick read, plus each one has a pattern to knit and a recipe. Can't ask for more than that!

A Deadly Yarn

Once again Maggie Sefton has produced a winner. I love all of her books. They are witty, with a little suspense. Her characters are charming. Look forward to more books from her.

A Yummy Yarn

Another in a delightful series about amateur sleuth and knitting novice Kelly Flynn. Supported by the Lambspun family, Kelly investigates the murder of a talented fibre artist. It's fun following Kelly's decisions about her career and her reluctant love life. The atmosphere at Lambspun is so warm and comforting, it inspired me to find a similar place to share my fibre passion (and I did!). Can't wait for the next installment.

A Deadly Yarn by Millie

Very good. Those Alpacas know how to make fleece. Especially good for knitters or those who forgot they knew.

Another winner!

This is the third book in Sefton's knitting series and definitely worth the time to pick up. Sefton continues to develop Kelly's life and add changes to it to keep us involved personally as well as with the murder plot. I enjoy the "cozy" knitting theme as well as the plot. The CO setting is very well done and enjoyable. In this installment, a fabric artist that Kelly knew is murdered, but it is first seen as a sucide. Kelly can't accept this so begins investigating herself. She actually does a good job of keeping the police involved as well, which is a nice change from many murder mysteries! We also see developments in Kelly's personal life as she has to decide whether to cut the ties to her DC job and transfer permanently to CO. Hopefully in the next book we will see some more movement in her romantic life as well! Steve has been very patience and is SO sweet...they definitely need to jump over the line into actually dating! Pick up a cup of tea, a ball of yarn and enjoy this book!
