This Saturday, March 8, is our next meeting. The scheduled program is an Irish crochet project, presented by Anne Reaves.

Supplies: Bring fingering weight yarn with appropriate crochet hook, or if you're really brave and have great vision, bring size 10 crochet cotton and appropriate hook.

(Appropriate hook means you know if you crochet to gauge, tighter than gauge, or looser than gauge.)
