Knit-Ins
are sponsored by the Guild for the benefit of Guild members.
A Knit-In is a group of Guild members who meet in their
homes or another place such as a restaurant, bookstore,
or library to knit, exchange patterns, help each other with
techniques, and become better acquainted with other members
of the Guild.
Most
Knit-Ins are organized in a geographical area so that members
live close to one another. However, membership in a Knit-In
is NOT limited to members living in that area. A Guild member
is welcome to attend any of the Knit-Ins.
If
you would like to start a new Knit-In, contact our Communications
VP, who is listed on page 2 of your phone directory,
for information/advice/encouragement!!
Knit-Ins
usually meet once a month. Some meet during the day and
may include bringing a sack lunch. If you plan to visit
a Knit-In and are not sure whether to bring your lunch,
check with the hostess or call for directions. Meetings
of Knit-Ins with dates and times are listed in the monthly
newsletter along with the hostess' name and phone number.
Occasionally,
some Knit-Ins go afield. The members decide to take a field
trip to visit a yarn shop or go out to dinner together.
A Knit-In may take on a special project such as arranging
the favors or program for the Guild banquet. Some Knit-Ins
have a particular interest such as lace, dolls, toys, etc.
Attending
a Knit-In is a way to get more involved with the Guild and
gain an extra benefit from your membership dollar. You may
attend as many Knit-Ins as your schedule will allow. The
only requirement for joining a Knit-In is that you be a
Guild member in good standing.
Non-members
may attend any Knit-In held at a library, business, or similar
place governed by non-exclusion rules.
