Jackie Longfellow, a middle-aged grandmother skilled in crafts and especially crochet, is working at her churchs Christmas bazaar. Shes visited by an actor participating in Dickens A Christmas Carol, who discovers an unfinished ornament among her wares. At home, she discovers the object to be beautifully crafted and puzzles that it is incomplete.----Her daughter, Vicky, struggling in her marriage, brings her three daughters from Atlanta to Jackies house in New Jersey for Christmas to get away and sort out her life. When two of Vickys girls pull one of Jackies crocheted ornaments apart, they find a similarity between one that Jackies mother helped make as a child and the unfinished ornament.-----Jackie and Vicky search through Jackies family letters for mention of crochet and macramé together and find an obscure reference to an unidentified “him.” Vicki discovers an old letter to Jackie containing a marriage proposal, which leads her to inquire about her parents break-up. The craft curiosity starts a search for family names back through Jackies grandparents, only to uncover a shredded newspaper clipping and a torn-up telegram death notice from World War I, missing the sailors name.----Where will the connections from the Christmas ornament lead and will it reveal The Ghost of Christmas Past?
