Evelyn Saploat has watched her older sister and mother complete countlessly at their annual Saploat Family Reunion against a web of cousins, aunts and uncles, plus a few cranky grandparents. Now, she finally gets a chance. But this year, the Saploat's competition craft is crochet. Throughout all her years at working at the family business, Evelyn has never bothered to learn any string related crafts; it was all too tangled for her. Now, trapped in her own string of lies and too embarrassed to tell her family, she pretends to know all there is to know. Then, Evelyn is struck with luck. She meets Duncan Hodlings, a quirky new customer. It turns out that Duncan has spent most of his life crocheting, knitting, embroidering, stitching, and performing every other string art out there. He agrees to teach Evelyn in time for her reunion, but Evelyn needs A LOT of help.
Maybe, just maybe, from the grace of the string gods and blessings of the loop saints, Evelyn can possibly crochet.
