This yarn about a competition out of control will charm the socks off readers of all ages and knitting abilities.

Review

What a wonderful book about two people who wouldn't give up but realizing they won more from what they gained in their life than their competition. Their fun journey was exciting and the anticipation to see what the outcome would be keeps you wanting to read more. .A great takeaway is realizing what’s important in life but most importantly having the support of family and friends can inspire you to make anything possible.

Overall, the warm, beautiful illustrations that complement this good read that will leave you feeling good. This book was a fun way to introduce knitting to kids.
