Report copyright infringementby Jonna Carter (Author), Chrisila Maida (Illustrator)Lacey's knitting hobby is a cozy escape from middle school survival, until a collection of magic needles gives her the power to craft her own reality . . . and maybe everyone else's. Lacey Hayes is the only sixth grader in town who knits sweaters, eats soup for lunch and goes to bed at 7:30. Is it any wonder her new best friend is an old lady in a nursing home? She and Mary McHale have so much in common. Mrs. McHale's embroidery lessons are a cinch for Lacey, so the old woman finally gives her a real challenge-A pattern for a stuffed cat. The moment Lacey sews the last stitch on the kitten's adorable whiskers, the thing comes alive! Brimming with questions, Lacey sprints to Mrs. McHale's bedside, only to learn that she's passed away in the night. All she has to remember her by is a box of antique crafting stuff. The needles are a gleaming gold and the patterns have weird names like "Brooch the Subject," and "Go Away Crochet." With the help of her new feline familiar and childhood pal, Ryan, Lacey uses the magic patterns to mend every problem that comes her way. When a pair of the golden knitting needles goes missing, Lacey must track down the thief and keep the rest of her supplies safe, all while looking for a spell that might save her sick uncle from the brink of death. But can the magic really be that powerful? And is the needle thief a mysterious stranger, or someone closer than she ever imagined . . . This cozy, spell-binding romp of a novel is best enjoyed between knitting projects, with a side of tea and chocolate chip cookies!
