On the third Monday of the month a group of enthusiastic knitters meet in the Resource Room at the Duxbury Free Library. From 6:00 - 8:00 you can find knitters of various skill levels with yarn between their fingers. We would love you to join us. If you can't, follow us here!

From the Library's Shelves

I've gradually been working on my bucket list. I still need to see the Grand Canyon, be able to make Boston baked beans from scratch, keep a plant  in the house for more than one year without killing it and finish the Knitting Guild of America's Master Hand Knitting program.

But then one day at the library I noticed Knitter's Life List by Gwen W. Steege. I quickly checked it out. Suddenly my bucket list was 320 pages long! The book has everything from a who's who in the knitting universe to descriptions of every fiber you could ever knit with. Add to that, technique instructions, tons of tips and yes, a check-off list for anything that could possibly be on your knitting bucket list.

Don't worry, I returned the book right away. This was one I had to have in my own library. Go ahead, go to the library and check it out. Let me know if you also return it right away and buy your own copy.

Until next time, keep your nose in a book or your fingers in fiber.
