We had a great turn out for our Discovery Nook Opening and Story Time last Thursday! Big thanks to Children's Librarian Kirsten Wilson at the Winooski Memorial Library for reading the book "Red Berry Wool" so we could learn all about sheep and where wool sweaters come from!

This Sunday at noon you can join us for another Story Time during the Winooski Fiber Fair. Our Stitch Together knitting instructor Elin Melchior will be reading "Extra Yarn" by Mac Barnett, followed by a finger knitting activity. Fun for all ages!

Can't make it? The Discovery Nook is open every Thursday and Friday from 12pm-4pm.

Join us at 10:30 for a Story Time reading of Red Berry Wool, a beautifully illustrated picture book by Robyn Eversole, where a sheep learns what steps it takes to make a sweater:
“Wash The Wool. Spin it. Dye the Wool. Knit it.”
