Kathleen, Sari, and Lucy are three single friends living the fast life in Los Angeles. The three friends get together every Sunday morning for a kntiting circle, where they share their weekly happenings and love lives over knitting. The book turned out to be much more about the girls learning to find personal fulfillment and love than about either knitting or drinking, but that's okay!
A major sub-theme in the book is treatment for autism. In the story, Sari, whose older brother Charlie is autistic, works as a therapist at an autism clinic. Sari must deal with a bunch of conflicting emotions when she begins treating 4-year old Zack Smith, whose father Jason Smith went to high school with Sari and ran with a group of kids who made fun of Charlie and called him a "retard". The author has an autistic son of her own, and does a great job of weaving in the autism angle into the storyline.
