On Sunday, members of the Sewing Salon and the Fairfield Woods Branch Library’s Purls of Wisdom Knitting Group tied 215 homemade scarves, two hats and six pairs of mittens on signs, benches and trees outside the downtown library.
Members have been working on the accessories since October. Each bore a tag reading “Want a Scarf — Take a Scarf — Stay Warm!”
The second annual yarn bombing was well tim-d after Saturday’s snowstorm and the frigid temperatures that followed.
The community project was well received and downtown walkers snapped cellphone photos of the few scarves still hanging around the library Monday afternoon.
