World Wide Knit in Public Day is Coming!!!

Be like Andy and join us at the South Jefferson Public Library for Knit (and Crochet) in Public Day 2013!  Here at the library we will be meeting Saturday June 8th from 10-5. Please feel free to stop by anytime that day to sit, stitch, and chat while we work on items to be donated to charity! This year we will be making items to donate to the Jefferson County Community Ministries. We now have patterns at the library available for Mittens, Hats, and Scarves in Crochet and Knitting! These patterns aren't required, just for your convenience, but please feel free to use any pattern that you like!

As always we will have snacks, limited yarn, and fun available!!!
If you want to contribute but can't come feel free to drop off any yarn, or completed items at the library between now and June 10th!

And due to popular demand we will be actively planning our fall edition of the library sit and stitch. Our first "long term" project for this will be prayer shawls. We're excited to discuss this new additon on June 8th!

Happy Spring!

Happy Spring!! I am out of Blog Hibernation!!

I do have an ulterior motive though... As many of you know I am a Young Adult Librarian at our little library in Summit Point... as such I am always wracking my brain (or slamming it against the wall) for ways to get my age group more interested in library events especially Summer Reading!! To help with this the other library ladies and I have created an online YA Book Club/Blog.

The Stacks! Still in its construction stages, The Stacks is available at http://yastacks.blogspot.com , please feel free to check it out (if you'll excuse the library pun) and leave your feedback. I'm hoping to have our first book posts up in May with the idea that 2 books a month will be suggested, each with their own post. You either read, have already read, or have no intention of reading these books, but either way you are invited to leave your (heavily moderated) comment.

Any feedback, either on this blog or directly at the Stacks blog would be greatly appreciated!!
