Cal is curious about the other girls in the group home where she is taken after her mother has a breakdown. After all, unlike those other girls, she will only be staying for a few days. Despite her determination to keep her distance, Cal learns to knit from the "Knitting Lady," the old woman who runs the home, and is drawn into the stories she tells. Cal begins to accept this detour from her real life, and even loudmouth, prying Whitney wins her over.
