When murder strikes the small town of Tallulah Falls, embroidery shop owner Marcy Singer isn€t afraid of getting down to the knitty-gritty to clear her name....  For most small-business owners in Tallulah Falls, the upcoming Renaissance Faire is a wonderful way to promote their specialty shops. For Marcy€s nemesis, Nellie, and her sister, Clara, it€s an opportunity to finally put Marcy and her shop, the Seven-Year Stitch, out of business. Apparently the sisters like to make grudges a family affair and have set up competing booths right next to Marcy€s at the Ren Faire.
When Clara is discovered dead in her own booth€"strangled by the scarf she had almost finished knitting€"Marcy becomes the prime suspect. Now she has to do whatever it takes to keep her reputation from unraveling€"and get to the bottom of a most deadly yarn....
