摘要、提要註:	This study examines the lived experience of participating and learning about knitting in a drop-in knitting group that meets in a public library. The study was conducted in the phenomenological tradition of qualitative research and data was collected through interviews and participant observations. Data was analyzed using constant comparative analysis through the theoretical lenses of social capital and the sociocultural learning theory. The following themes arose: (1) conversation and interaction among members are cherished, (2) primary identities define the degree and kind of knitting-related teaching and learning that takes place (3) the diversity and high turnover of fringe participants in the group has consequences for teaching and learning needs, (4) the public library has a constant presence in the life of the knitting group, and (5) knitting with the group provides a sense of community. Analysis showed that the library's social capital played a bigger role in members' participation than vice versa and participant identities were important in shaping an unstructured experience.

This study examines the lived experience of participating and learning about knitting in a drop-in knitting group that meets in a public library. The study was conducted in the phenomenological tradition of qualitative research and data was collected through interviews and participant observations. Data was analyzed using constant comparative analysis through the theoretical lenses of social capital and the sociocultural learning theory. The following themes arose: (1) conversation and interaction among members are cherished, (2) primary identities define the degree and kind of knitting-related teaching and learning that takes place (3) the diversity and high turnover of fringe participants in the group has consequences for teaching and learning needs, (4) the public library has a constant presence in the life of the knitting group, and (5) knitting with the group provides a sense of community. Analysis showed that the library's social capital played a bigger role in members' participation than vice versa and participant identities were important in shaping an unstructured experience.
