Anita has been Georgia’s rock and support for years but needs Georgia’s advice when a new suitor arrives on the scene. The two women have a close friendship and they both value this relationship highly above demands from their natural families. Georgia’s friend Anita is a lively widow in her seventies. She is at that awkward age when she asks plenty of awkward questions of her mother Georgia. Dakota is 12 years old and is a pretty handy knitter herself, but is even better at producing muffins, cookies and cupcakes for the club members. However, the achievement that she is most proud of is raising her daughter, Dakota. Georgia has struggled to make ends meet all her life and has worked all hours to make her yarn shop a success. The book was Kate Jacobs’ debut which describes the concerns and hopes of the group members as they deal with heartaches, difficulties and joyful moments. It is a book about female friendships, loves, parenthood and, of course… knitting. The Friday Night Knitting Club written by Kate Jacobs is about a single Mum, Georgia Walker, her shop on Broadway’s Upper East Side in New York and a group of friends who visit her yarn shop. Have you ever wondered what the lives of other knitters are like?
