Relax and enjoy knitting in the company of others at the Rowayton Library. These sessions will be an opportunity to share patterns, different techniques and helpful hints from more experienced knitters. Bring your current project or an old unfinished one. If you haven't knit in years, don't rush out and buy new supplies. Just bring your favorite needles-we also have extra needles and yarn. After a quick refresher you will be able to select an appropriate pattern for your skill level and order materials. Refreshments will be served.
