The House of Lambspun has been bombarded for the holidays. In the midst of overflowing bins of sumptuous yarn, unexpected winter romance now buzzes, in chorus with the spindles of shy new spinning instructor Lucy Adair. But when a rancher is found dead in Bellevue Canyon, avid knitter and sometime-sleuth Kelly Flynn quickly puts these festive pastimes aside. With his reputation for lovin' and leavin' the ladies of Fort Connor, it seems a little strange that the victim's final admirer was a fiancee... none other than the hopelessly bereaved Lucy Adair. Unluckily, Kelly also finds herself linked to the prime suspect in the case-a rejected ex-lover of the playboy rancher. Charged with keeping both spinner and spurned from going over the edge, she'll discover more than a few secrets tangled on this triad's bobbin.… (meer)

As usual too many suspects for me to keep track of and I'm still not at all sure if Kelly is likeable enough to care about but the love of all this knitting and fibre is very apparent and makes up for these weaknesses. (

The Lambspun community could be set in any small town. That is part of the charm of Maggie Sefton's craft. With the re-emergence of knitting, this series is sure to attract younger readers. The writing is easy to follow and the variety of characters will surely allow readers to find at least one to cheer for. I enjoyed learning more about other characters and how the author kept Kelly at a distance in this story.

If you are looking for a good old-fashioned whodunit set in a small town over the holidays, you won't be disappointed. If you enjoy knitting, you will be further engaged by the pattern at the end of the book. (

I think this was my favorite of the series so far. Unlike the previous books in which Kelly's main role is to solve the mystery, this book creates some distance between Kelly and murder, as she is helping out a friend and not directly involved herself. I think that it makes the plot more plausible, plus it allowed the author to expand on Kelly's character in a different direction. (

This series continues to be quite enjoyable. There are good hints at the end of the book as to the next book's mystery and budding romances between characters. (

Lovely Colorado backdrop, and an almost sensuous love of yarns and fibers set this cozy mystery apart from the usual run. My first read in this series, and I enjoyed it very much. An alpaca rancher of dastardly reputation is found murdered, and there are more than the usual number of lovely young suspects. Kelly Flynn must keep the threads from tangling as she comforts the inconsolable, protects the vulnerable, and tries repeatedly to purchase her dream mountain canyon home. The answer to the murder comes slowly and unexpectedly. Fun. (
