Everyone busy at arts and crafts learning the foundation of crochet. Whether the projects be for holidays like those done in February or in December, participants get engaged in working with the fiber yarn on themed projects. The sessions held at BPL through an ALA advocacy group model at a branch. The works produced items for participants to take with them, finish projects with their own material and supplies they brought, and items they worked on for the library with branch yarn supplies. These images show recent themed project works and basic learning techniques I taught.

Holiday display at local library branch.
Crochet decorations done by participants of our library advocacy group. Some of the decorations, like those you see of a crochet triangle square, white christmas tree, and green Christmas tree worked on rectangular plastic canvas, red and green Christmas tree on side walls were done by an advanced senior citizen participant. She and I both were past participants of former Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams' crochet program at Borough Hall.
Another senior citizen whose works are the red square coasters seen on side walls, along with braided Christmas hanging strands of decor facing us is a retired nurse. My works are the attached band along the top with the green in center. I also made what's in front resting on top, the red/white snowflake coasters, green forest tree coasters and white reindeer head. As part of our advocacy group, we have lanyard project-making and some of its work is also in this showcase.
