Join this crafters’ circle to connect with fiber-loving community members. If you enjoy crochet, knitting, macramé, needlepoint, embroidery, felting and more, this club is for you! Enjoy the opportunity to work on your own project, receive and lend assistance, and nurture your creativity while building community!

This club will set up on the rug near the Children’s Fiction area, so it’s easier to keep an eye on any little ones that join you on your excursion.

Facilitated by lovely volunteer Andrea, this will be a weekly club starting June 5th.
