If you love both reading and the fiber arts, then this book group is the one for you! We will get together each month to discuss a book and your knitting, crocheting, spinning, weaving, felting, or other yarn-related crafts.
Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month from 1:00-2:15 p.m. in a hybrid format, both in person and over Zoom.
Discussion Agreements & Guidelines
To participate, contact Lauren Yarnall at fiberarts@westhartfordlibrary.org or 860-561-6997.
Find the eAudiobooks or eBooks on Libby and/or Hoopla,
or borrow the books or CD audiobooks from the West Hartford Public Library.
