Libby Morgan sits in her boss's office expecting the partnership she has worked toward for years. Instead, she receives devastating news: the law firm is letting her go. After sacrificing her marriage, friendships, and dreams of family for her career, Libby faces an empty future with no job prospects. She turns to A Good Yarn, a neighborhood knitting store owned by Lydia, a kind woman who welcomes Libby into her world. There Libby meets Casey, Lydia's spirited teenage daughter, and Ava, Casey's shy best friend who carries deep troubles. The knitting shop becomes Libby's refuge as she discovers a different version of herself. She finds unexpected romance with a charming doctor who seems like her ideal partner. But when a crucial decision arrives, Libby must choose between the new life she has built and forces that threaten to upend everything she now values.
