Morning Knitting and Other Handiwork is a casual, self-directed social gathering for fiber artists of all skill levels. Attendees bring their own knitting, crochet, or embroidery projects to work on while chatting and sharing tips with other local makers. This free event takes place in the North Meeting Room at the North Regional Library in Durham. It is best suited for adults and teens who can work independently, as no formal childcare is provided. You will need to bring your own yarn, needles, hooks, and patterns, though experienced attendees are often on hand to help you troubleshoot tricky steps. The library offers a spacious, free parking lot right out front. It is a productive way to carve out some quiet creative time for yourself on a Monday morning. You can swap pattern ideas, get help with a dropped stitch, and connect with other Durham parents who share your love of crafting.
