Locket’s Book & Craft Club 2025 - Book #4 Found in a Book Shop

Locket's Book & Craft Club is continuing in 2025 - what books and crafts will we encounter this year?!!  Every two months or so there will be a new book recommendation and the opportunity to pre-order the special craft box that I have put together to go with the book and come to a special Knit Group/Book Club meeting either in person at Lucy Locket Land or virtually via Zoom.

Please note, you will need to have signed up for the Craft Box to come to the Book Group meetings

The Craft Boxes will vary and you will be given an indication of what type of project it will contain.  You can also choose to sign up for each one or just whichever takes your fancy - there's no tie-in.

My 4th book for 2025 is Found in a Bookshop by Stephanie Butland and the very exciting news is that Stephanie will be joining us for the Book Club Meet Up on Saturday 11th October!

The project this time will be knitting, in the round, using my hand dyed Merino/nylon DK - and you will be knitting TWO of them! Any guesses?

There will be other goodies included in the kit but they will be a surprise - no spoilers!

I really enjoyed Found in a Bookshop on so many levels and I hope you will too. I've attached the Amazon synopsis below:

The life-affirming and unforgettable novel from the author of Lost for Words

'I read this book in one sitting, it made me smile and made me wipe a tear from my eye too' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'This book had me sitting up into the small hours. Such a lovely read, very relatable and touching' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'I LOVED this book . . . A joy to read' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'One of the best books I've read in quite some time' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Loveday Cardew's beloved Lost for Words bookshop, along with the rest of York, has fallen quiet. At the very time when people most need books to widen their horizons, or escape from their fears, or enhance their lives, the doors are closed. Then the first letter comes.

Rosemary and George have been married for fifty years. Now their time is running out. They have decided to set out on their last journey together, without ever leaving the bench at the bottom of their garden in Whitby. All they need is someone who shares their love of books.

Suddenly it's clear to Loveday that she and her team can do something useful in a crisis. They can recommend books to help with the situations their customers find themselves in: fear, boredom, loneliness, the desire for laughter and escape.

And so it begins.
