Blurb

Would you like to use a description from the Blurb Bank?: 
No, I'll create my own blurb.
Program Description: 
It's not your granny's hook stitch, but you can still learn to crochet a granny square! Create your own looks when you hand craft scarves, beanies, and leg warmers. Bring your own project, or come to learn how to loop something new. We will come together to trade project ideas with other creative crocheters and knot to the tranquil rhythm of this relaxing hobby. Yarn and crochet hooks are available for those who need them. A fun crochet pattern and light snack will be provided for those who need a little motivation. *This will be a recurring event the last Thursday of every month! Mark your calendar's now!
