Adult Social Activities
Sit & Knit (& Crochet Too!)
The Sit & Knit group meets every Wednesday 1:30 – 3:00 PM. All levels, including non-knitters who wish to learn how, are welcome. The sessions are an opportunity to hone your skills, learn new ones, help others, show off your work, or simply sit and knit. Not only will you meet members who share your interest in this ancient craft, but also you will discover new fibers, see new patterns, learn how knitters around the world use Ravelry—all while you indulge in some time for yourself to exercise this wonderful hobby. For more information, contact Mary Coleman at 203-920-1630.
