The perfect seasonal tale of how laughter, friends and wacky
Christmas sweaters can mend a broken heart.
Heartbroken after being jilted at the altar, Sybil has been saved
from despair by her knitting obsession and now her home is filled to bursting
with tea cozies, beanies, and sweaters. But, after discovering that she may
have perpetrated the screw-up of the century at work, Sybil decides to make a
hasty exit and, just weeks before Christmas, runs away to the picturesque
village of Tindledale.
There, Sybil discovers Hettie’s House of Haberdashery, an emporium
dedicated to the world of knitting and needle craft. But Hettie, the outspoken
octogenarian owner, is struggling and now the shop is due for closure. And when
Hettie decides that Sybil’s wonderfully wacky Christmas sweaters are just the
thing to add a bit of excitement to her window display, something miraculous
starts to happen…
