Knit Two Together by Connie Lane

Libby Cartwright hadn't planned on inheriting a yarn shop from her estranged mother. But that was before she found her favorite childhood stuffed animal amidst the dust and moldering yarn. And before she encountered a motley crew of locals determined to resurrect the store. So what else had Mom been hiding?

Running Metropolitan Knits means Libby still has lots to learn. About knitting. Motherhood (who ever said raising a daughter was easy!).

And even romance. For quiet Hal O'Connell, an unlikely—and unattached—new customer, turns out to be a kindred spirit. As the Grand Reopening approaches, Libby learns to knit two together— in knitting and in life.—

My aunt gave me this book after she finished reading it. When I got it I saw that it was published by Harlequin but not Harlequin Teen, which made me weary. I’m also not the biggest fan of “adult” books. When I started reading this book I was pleasantly surprised. There were no sex-crazed characters or overly dramatic scenes. I read the first half in one sitting and I found that there were some really good life lessons in it. The main character has to deal with her suddenly rebellious daughter and a new divorce.
This book was mainly about transition and family. It had a backdrop of a relationship happening, which provided a sweet touch to it.
I also liked how through this whole story, it incorporated knitting and who therapeutic it can be. This book was refreshing and a quick read. I recommend it to people who generally don’t like adult books and are willing to give one a try.
