At Christmastime, it seems as though a woman’s work is never done. Trimming the tree, mailing the cards, schlepping to the mall, the endless wrapping—bah humbug!

 

So this year, Joy and the rest of her knitting group decide to go on strike. If their husbands and families want a nice holiday—filled with parties, decorations, and presents—well, they’ll just have to do it themselves. The boycott soon takes on a life of its own when a reporter picks up the story and more women in their community join in. But as Christmas Day approaches, Joy and the other ladies discover that a little holiday magic is exactly what they need for their families to come together.
