Miss Marple Spins A Yarn

Constructor's Note
Cowritten with Star Athena, this puzzle was an extra included in her monthly sock pattern subscription service. That month's theme was Agatha Christie, so we created a puzzle to appeal to those who know mysteries and knitting.

    I love the double theme (though neither was very familiar to me) - nicely done!

      Thanks Mike! Pretty specific audience on this one, hopefully there are a few people out there that will really enjoy this.

        The homonym for 61D61D68-across homonym[----] is 68A68AHalter attachment[----], not 67A67ATowel text at the Borgnine/Merman home[-----]. That said, I'm a mere knitter wanna-be (real soon now) so I had to look up several terms, including lace frogging. I learned what it was, but not the answer - until I worked the adjacent clues. It made me laugh. Relaxing subjects too. Fun!
