Synopsis
In her newest edition in the popular Blossom Street series, Debbie Macomber shares the stories of Lydia Goetz, owner of A Good Yarn shop and customers who have become friends through her knitting classes.
The latest class is Knit to Quit, where knitting is used as therapy to help avoid bad habits of various kinds. The main characters included are Alix Turner, a bakery chef who wants to stop smoking; Anne Marie, a book store owner with a complex family situation; Phoebe Tylander, a physical therapist who wants to get over a lost love; and Bryan Hutchinson, a candy company CEO who is at high risk for heart disease.
Knit and crochet projects in this companion book are inspired by the lives and projects of the characters; there are scarves, a baby blanket, sweaters, socks and other items.

Library Journal
This tie-in to one of Macomber's popular romance novels includes easy knitting and crochet patterns, along with excerpts from Summer on Blossom Street. None of the designs is innovative, but the simplicity of the patterns and the inexpensive yarn choices combined with Macomber's familiar name make this a good bet.
