ADULT KNITTING GROUP

Wednesdays 3:30 - 4:30 in the Library

We're learning to knit socks!!! Each one of us has completed knitting at least one pair of socks, or pretty close to finishing and we've had a great time learning. We've all chosen different yarns to work with and it's exciting to see how the patterns form as we knit. If you would like to see what we're doing this week, please don't hesitate to stop in.

The abilities of the members of this group range from beginner to pro so don't be afraid to join if you've never knitted before. Jean will be happy to give you instructions.

This is an adult only group. If young people are interested in starting a seperate group please contact Jean at the library.
