The Shop on Blossom Street - (Blossom Street Novel) by Debbie Macomber (Paperback)

About the Book

There's a little shop on Blossom Street in Seattle called A Good Yarn. You go there to buy knitting supplies and patterns, and now it's offering a knitting class. The first lesson: how to knit a baby blanket. For owner Lydia Hoffman, the shop represents her dream of beginning a new life free from the cancer that has ravaged her twice. A life that offers a chance at love and maybe marriage. Jacqueline Donovan is stuck in a marriage that has dwindled into an arrangement of separate rooms and separate lives. She disapproves of the woman married to her only son, but if she knits a baby blanket, she can at least pretend to like her pregnant daughter-in-law. For Carol Girard, the baby blanket brings a message of hope as she and her husband make a final attempt at in vitro pregnancy. And tense-looking Alix Townsend, that's Alix with an "i", is learning to knit her blanket for her court-ordered community service project. Brought together by an age-old craft, these four women make unexpected discoveries about themselves and each other. Discoveries that lead to love, to friendship and acceptance, to laughter and dreams.

Book Synopsis

Return to where it all began in The Shop on Blossom Street, the first in the heartwarming series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber.

A Good Yarn isn't just Seattle's go-to store for knitting supplies, it symbolizes a fresh, cancer-free life for owner Lydia Hoffman. It's also the place where she's begun offering a class, How to Make a Baby Blanket, which brings three other women together to discover more than a few new stitches.

Jacqueline Donovan doesn't approve of her daughter-in-law, but this project may be the olive branch she needs to make things right with her only son's family. For Carol Girard, the baby blanket represents her and her husband's hope at finally conceiving. Alix Townsend, on the other hand, is tackling this project due to a court-ordered community service project.

Leaning over their knitting needles, the four of them discover more than they thought possible about each other and themselves. Join them in these deeply special moments that form the beginning of a friendship that will last a lifetime!
