Business is booming for Libby Beckett and her fabulous Maryland shop, aptly named Y.A.R.N., but when a town festival brings a fatality with it, Libby gets all tangled up in murder.
As spring comes to Collinstown, the village launches a food festival to draw a new group of tourists. Libby, proud owner of Y.A.R.N., has planned a yarn event to provide an alternative option to a foodie weekend. Artisan fiber dyer Julie Wilsonâknown for her work with animal-friendly, plant-based knitting fibers such as bamboo and hemp as well as her brilliant use of colorâwill hopefully draw a crowd with a special dyeing workshop.
The festival begins, but it draws more than crowds. First a flock of sheep parades down the street, herded by farmers protesting Julieâs antiwool stance. Then Julieâs celebrity chef sister appears, and the siblings resume a long-standing rivalry. Despite all this, Julieâs workshop has sold out. Libby is thrilled, and theyâre preparing for a full house. But the night before the event, Julie is found alone in the warehouse event spaceâdead. The witty âWatch Julie Wilson Dyeâ workshop title now has a terrible new meaningâand itâs up to Libby to catch a crafty killer.
