We will be reading a range of books from fiction to nonfiction, mystery to children's books, and maybe even a picture book or two! The book will be announced the month previous around the 15th. Even if you have not read the book feel free to join us, grab some of our yummy yarn for the project and take time to enjoy two of the best pastimes reading and yarn crafts! Kits will be available for purchase. A limited number will include a new or used copy of the book and the yarn needed for the project. When copies of the book are limited these kits will also be limited so we can't guarantee the number that will be available.
