Windsor Locks Knitters

The Windsor Locks Library Knitting Club meets every Tuesday from 7-8 PM in the magazine area at the back of the library. Anyone interested in joining the group (crocheters and other needlecrafters are welcome as well!) can contact group leader / instructor Nancy Wenzel at 860-623-0681 or by email.

Who we are: We are a group of children and women who meet every Tuesday at the Windsor Locks library. We love to knit and crochet. We are now about 10 members strong and love to have new people join us. Nancy is the instructor and will help you any way that she can, including researching your problem and finding a solution if she cannot give you an immediate answer. All of the knitters and crocheters in the group are willing and able to help new members. We love to teach children to knit and crochet, so don't be afraid to stop in. There are no age limits as long as the child is interested in learning. Anyone is welcome to come see what we are about and what we are up to!

What we make:The Windsor Locks Library Knitting Club has participated in save the Children's Caps to the Capitol campaign. As a group we contributed 75 hats!
We also make sweaters, hats, slippers, baby clothes, blankets, afghans, mittens, Christmas stockings, felted pieces such as socks, slippers, bags, etc.

Here are a few examples of our recent projects:


Judy Chapman's grandaughter will be the best dressed girl in town
in this adorable sweater knit especially for her by grandma!


Dolores Brookman knitted hats for the newborns at Connecticut Children's Medical Center,
including the ones shown above.



Dolores received this letter of thanks from CCMC.

Come join us in all the fun we have each week!
