Monthly Needlecraft Night

Central School 103 South Maple Street, Mount Prospect

We’ll repurpose (clean) old t-shirts into soft yarn, and we’ll crochet it into a coaster, or the start of a rug or bag. This is a great time to learn a few simple crochet stitches! All experience levels are welcome. A $5 donation is suggested. Register here.
