What a treat!
I loved to continue spending time with the characters from The Friday Night Knitting Club and Knit Two. I always end up wanting to go find Walker & Daughter and join the club. Ms. Jacobs books really point out the importance of community; the families we're born in to, marry in to, and the groups of friends we create around us. A wonderful read; I was sorry when it ended.

Not great
It was ok. I'm not sure why I read this when I didn't like the 2nd book, maybe I thought the 3rd book would be better....it wasn't. I really think the first book was the best and the story should have stopped there. The 2nd and 3rd book just weren't as good as the original, and the writing style just bugged me. There were way too many characters and I had a hard time keeping them straight, usually I'm ok with a lot of characters, but for some reason in this series it just becomes overwhelming. My advice is to read the first book and then stop there. The 2nd and 3rd book were just not needed.

Not only are the holidays are just around the corner, the women who knit at Manhattan's Walker & Daughter have an extra reason to celebrate: there's a wedding planned for New Year's Day. In the meantime, college-age Dakota Walker is working to finish a sweater her mother started before Dakota was born. As she takes on her mother's pattern, she learns from her family and friends that there was much more history in these stitches than she had anticipated, and that to build on her mother's legacy, Dakota must allow herself to become the woman she truly desires to be... -

Inserts were a wonderful touch. Sad to see the group part ways but glad its on a happy note. I must say I thought the ending was a disappointment.

LOVED IT
I loved Kate Jacobs latest Knit The Season. The characters are still as enjoyable as the first one. I feel like they're old friends and like to see how they've grown and their friendships have expanded. Great curl up on the couch book.

Another great Friday Night Knitting Club book!
I didn't like this story nearly as well as the others until I got abou halfway through the book. All in all, this is another really good Friday Night Knitting Club book, a delightful story to read.

Don't waste your time with this one.
I loved the first book. The second was okay but not as memorable as the first. This one was obviously just an attempt to cash in on the holidays and get it out before it was ready. Very disappointing.

Love this series, and loved this book
I have been a fan of this series of books since I stumbled upon Kate Jacobs when I started searching for the word "knit" when I learned how to knit. I have felt a fondness for Jacobs' writing since Friday Night Knitting Club and feel connected to her characters as if they are my friends or family members. However, with that said, this book kind of felt a like a little was missing when compared to the first two books in the series. It was a quick and easy read, perfect for a rainy afternoon or a quiet day. i will be purchasing the next book in the series- I need to keep up with these characters that I've grown so attached to!

Great Before-You-Hit-the-Sack Read
Great book just prior to bedtime..really puts you to sleep! I have actually read all 4 of Kate J's novels, even the Comfort Food one (this one being out of the Knitting Club series). This book wasn't my favorite of them all, but nonetheless, it was a good read just before you want to go to sleep. I will probably purchase her next book..just to see what happens to all the characters in the book; there grows an "attachment" to the book characters and the reader, so there are both some charms and curiosities that brings me back to her readings.

Can life be this boring?
I was looking for 'light' reading and this book was so light it floated right out of my hands into the trash can. The characters were boring, the story, if you call it that, was bland. Even for light reading this was below grade. If this is an indication of her style I won't be buying another Kate Jacobs. To each his own, but not mine.

Great Read !
I really enjoyed this book. After reading Knit Two I wanted to know more about the characters. Each character is differnt and unique. They each play a part in the Firday Night Knitting Club and each other lives. I hope Kate Jacobs continues to tell us a bout the club members and their lives. I really enjoyd this book.

not as good
The first was well written, the second slipped a bit, and this one fell way down. I don't think I'd rush out to read a fourth.

Loved it
If you loved the Friday Night Knitting Club books you'll love Knit the Season - to see where the characters have gone and how they are growing apart and together is beautifully written by Kate Jacobs - I have enjoyed all of Kate Jacobs books - I think she creates characters you can relate too - I am glad that she continued the series to all the readers to she how Dakota grew up with the love of Georgia's friends!

Great book
Great follow up book to the previous Friday Night Knitting Club books. I love the characters. The book makes you feel like you are right there in NY with them. Hope the Knitting Club continues.
