The Guild's regular meetings, click here.
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 the Knit-In
Coordinator, 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.
To
find out more about the Guild and its activities, please
browse our site by clicking on the menu button on the left.
This expands the options. If you have any questions, please
contact us at info@stlouisknittersguild.com.
