I've been inspired by "Knitting for Peace" by Betty Christiansen, subtitled "Make the Word a Better Place, One Stitch at a Time." Some possible projects: Chemo Caps, Prayer Shawls, Security Blankets. So, we're knitting (or crocheting, quilting) to give back. Projects will be forwarded to appropriate organizations that will distribute. Get together with like-minded people and laugh, share and hopefully make the world a little better.

This is a group for anyone who loves to knit or wants to learn to knit. We will work on small projects for donations, particularly hats, scarves and mittens to be donated during the "Midnight Run" over the winter. Beginners welcome, help will be available. Bring your yarn scraps or whatever leftovers you have. I can probably reserve a space in a local White Plains School for an evening once a week. Remembers, scarves are simple and you can easily learn and have fun at the same time!

Looking to start a New Haven branch of my beloved Knit + Wine Brooklyn, a casual monthly gathering of knitters (and crocheters!) of all levels that took place at a local wine bar. I know there are some good wine bars in town, and I'm sure there are knitters, so let's put 'em together!

The purpose of this group is to promote the ancient art of rug weaving in the greater NY area. If you are an arts & crafts lover, this another medium you will simply love to work in. However, unlike knitting or other crafts, there is nowhere in Manhattan to learn the secrets of rug weaving...until NOW! We are starting off with beginner's workshops with the hopes of creating a future weaving circle. Come and enjoy a cup of Turkish coffee with us!

Whether you sew and would be motivated to finish more projects with a group or you're a beginner looking to learn, this is the group for you.

Bring your machine or give me a heads up in advance and you can use my spare.
