Knitting and Crocheting Class in Powell

Frances Clymer and Anna Sapp are back with our Knitting and Crocheting Class! This class will be a low-key environment for beginning to advanced knitters and crocheters who want to share tips with each other or start their first project. This craft program will continue once a month to give you time and space to work on your project with Frances and Anna for guidance and support. If you need supplies, a minimal fee will be charged for enough goodies to get you started. This class will be held on Tuesday, February 21, at 7:00 p.m. in the Fireside Room. Participants may join in at anytime, so even if you missed the first session it’s not too late! Please use the east entrance to the library.
