"The Knitting Circle" is a delightful weekly gathering at the Lacey Timberland Library, occurring every Friday from 10:00 AM to noon. This event welcomes crafters of all skill levels to bring their knitting, crochet, or other needlework projects, allowing them to share tips and enjoy crafting companionship. Participants can choose to meet in the Conference Room or a cozy area by the windows, creating an inviting environment. The structure of the gathering is informal, as attendees can arrive and depart as they wish, promoting a sense of community among local needle crafters. Those looking to declutter their crafting supplies are encouraged to bring unwanted yarn, needles, and books to donate, enhancing the spirit of sharing.

The event does not have a formal sponsorship from the library, emphasizing its grassroots nature. By fostering creativity and connection, "The Knitting Circle" serves as an excellent opportunity for residents to engage with one another while pursuing their crafting passions. Overall, this event not only supports individual creativity but also strengthens community bonds in Lacey.
