Crafts and Life

Knit and Nibble’s numbers are growing! In addition to a litter of adorable kittens, the knitting club just welcomed their newest member, Caralee Lorimer, who’s learning to knit for her upcoming role in A Tale of Two Cities. According to the amateur actress, the behind-the-scenes drama at the theater is getting downright catty, and Caralee wants a reckoning for Arborville’s pretentious suburbanites. Her claws are out, and just like her character in the play, Caralee is ready to name names. But before she can finish her snitchy stitches, Caralee is killed in a suspicious theater accident. Someone thinks they’ve staged a perfect murder, but Pamela and her Knit and Nibblers are ready to pounce on the real killer . . . before it’s curtains for anyone else!

The Knit and Nibblers have a temporary new member, Caralee Lorimer is to play the part of Madame Defarge in a local stage production of a Tale of Two Cities and so she needs to have knitting and be SEEN to be knitting, at one meeting Pamela is sat next to her and is stunned to see a huge bruise and scrape on her arm, Caralee explains it away as some of the props having fallen on her, but then it appears the same thing happens again (even though it was made safe … supposedly) only this time Caralee doesn't end up with bad bruises – she ends up dead!

Pamela and Bettina are not sure that this was an accident and so start digging, especially as Pamela had overheard a heated exchange between Caralee and another member of the cast – and then they discover that Caralee could knit and she had knitted names in the scarf, but as they start to ask questions Pamela's daughter becomes increasingly worried about Pamela's safety, especially when another body is found buried in the prop room and this proves to be no accident.
