Submitted by The Lopez Island Library

The Lopez Island Library is thrilled to feature author, traveler and knitting instructor Cat Bordhi, Saturday, Sept. 24 from 2-3 p.m. in the library. Bordhi is the author of eight knitting books, one novel and the creator of a number of single patterns.

A devoted traveler, she explores knitting in diverse settings around the world, teaching and learning techniques then sharing them with her readers and students. Known for her enthusiasm, humor and inventive spirit, her workshops are very popular.

Bordhi will be leading knitting workshops again this fall and winter in Peru and Iceland and her stories of knitting from the two countries will be featured in the library’s program. She also regularly conducts knitting retreats in Friday Harbor.

You don’t have to be a knitter to attend, but if you do, feel free to bring your work and knit as you listen to Cat. The library would like to exhibit your knitting in advance of this program.

Have a hat, scarf, socks or mittens you knitted? Drop them at the library for display around the fireplace for a couple of weeks then join us for a fun and unique event. Free to all. Sponsored by Friends of the Lopez Library.
