Inspiration Continues Here - New Offerings in the Library Creativity Zone

The Levy Library is pleased to partner with Sinai Embroidery, Crochet, and Knitting to expand the offerings in the Creativity Zone.  For your relaxation and destressing purposes, we're adding a variety of supplies to support fiber arts.

If you're new to the idea of fiber arts, stop by and take a few minutes to learn the basics of crochet by participating in our first ever "Add A Row" project.  We recognize that getting started on a new hobby can be daunting, so we've asked the members of Sinai Embroidery, Crochet, and Knitting to suggest some tutorial videos that show basic crochet techniques to help get you started!

 Stop into the Levy Library Creativity Zone and scan one of the provided QR codes or check out one of the tutorials below:

• How to Crochet for Absolute Beginners: Episode 1 - The Set Up
• How to Crochet for Absolute Beginners: Episode 2 - Single Crochet
• How to Crochet for Absolute Beginners: Episode 3 - Double Crochet

We invite anyone who's ever wanted to give it a try to add on to the objects we've started in the Creativity Zone.  Do a quick row or two when you need a moment to decompress during a long study session, something to focus on during a break, or simply something to do to keep your hands busy.  Of course, if you're already experienced, you're welcome to participate as well!

We look forward to seeing your creativity in action!
