The Unlikely Yarn of the Dragon Lady

More about the book

A simple change of scenery can profoundly impact lives. Margaret, Rose, Jane, and Fran gather weekly in their chapel to knit prayer shawls, a peaceful routine disrupted when their pastor forces them out to revive the dwindling congregation. Margaret, uptight and resistant, believes knitting in public is absurd and that prayer should remain in the church. However, her friends embrace the challenge, dragging a reluctant Margaret to the mall with their knitting supplies. Expecting failure, she is determined to prove her point to the pastor. As they step outside their familiar environment, their personal struggles and losses surface. Each encounter while knitting in public pushes them beyond their comfort zones, presenting unexpected challenges. They must confront knotty issues within the community, testing their courage and resolve. Sharon Mondragon's debut is a warm, delightful exploration of laughter, grief, and the strength of women across generations. It highlights their ability to connect with others and share faith in Christ, illustrating how stepping outside one's comfort zone can lead to transformative experiences.
