Calling all yarn artists! The Education Department is starting a stitchin' circle for yarn artists of all ilks. Whether you knit, crochet, embroider, tat, macramé or even make Mexican yarn art, your presence in the stitchin' circle is requested! You certainly don’t need to be an expert since the purpose of this circle is to learn from each other. Come join other yarn artists for socializing, snacking and helpful advice.

There will be plenty of worm information and fun, so be sure to make it back on the second Saturday of each month in 2009 to take part in new projects and fascinating programs.
