Grade: B-

Reason for reading: bookcrossing.com book

Blurb (from back cover): "Despite the fact that her aunt was an expert knitter, Kelly Flynn never picked up a pair of knitting needles she like-until she strolled into House of Lambpsun. Now, in the first in a brand new series, she learns how to knit one, purl two, and untangle the mystery behind her aunt's murder...

"Kelly Flynn would be the first to admit her life in Washington, D.C., is a little on the dull side. But coming back to Colorado for her beloved aunt's funeral wasn't the kind of excitement she was seeking. The police are convinced that her aunt Helen's death was the result of a burglary gone bad, but for the accountant in Kelly, things just aren't adding up. After all, why would her sensible, sixty-eight-year-old aunt borrow $20.000 just days before her death? With the help of the knitting regulars at House of Lambspun, Kelly's about to get a few lessons in cracking out a sumptuously colored scarf-and in luring a killer out of hiding..."

Opinion: A fun cozy however there are things that irk me.....Kelly was very forthcoming about all her issues about her aunt's murder and had no problem talking to strangers (to her) about her questions. How did she know that they weren't involved? Or where they?  That bothered me throughout the book but the solving of the mystery was a good one and I would recommend this.
