The Concord Free Public Library will host a free 4 week knitting workshops for children in grades 2 and up on Mondays March 21, March 28, April 4 and April 11 at 4pm.

Knitting is a great activity to encourage children’s creativity, concentration, relaxation and even math skills! This program is perfect for beginners as well as for those children looking to advance their skills. Diane Johnson of www.knitsandthat.com will teach children the basics of knitting (knit/purl stitch, casting on or off, increases/decreases) while helping each child make their own stuffed bunny rabbit. The workshop includes yarn, knitting needles, and a pattern. Register at :
