Our first World Wide Knit and Public Day at the Brooklyn Public Library was a big hit!  The weather out on the Plaza was perfect-sunny, but with lots of shade.  Dozens of knitters, beginners and veterans, joined in on the festivities.  My guess is that at least 150 people attended.  I hope the library offers more knitting events in the future.  If we do, you can read about them right here.  BPL's WWKIP was unexpectedly blogged about in the Nerdabout blog, which is part of the Science Channel.  You can read the entire post and watch four videos that chronicle the day right here.  The video spotlight on this website belongs to Grace Shanahan.  She works for the Brooklyn Public Library, and she is the one who was the driving force behind putting this wonderful event together.  The video below is of Grace being interviewed on Nerdabout about WWKIP.
