Can I visit before joining your group? Can I bring a friend?

Certainly! You and your friend(s) can visit twice before we ask you to join us.

How much are dues?

Dues are only $15 per year. There is also a lifetime member rate after 10 years of membership. You may join in person or online. Click here to join!

Do you ever cancel meetings due to weather?

Meetings may be cancelled if the facility closes or if the weather is dangerous enough that government officials ask drivers to stay off the road. Even if there’s no government announcement, the Board Members may decide to cancel in the case of dangerous driving conditions. We ask that each member also use her/his judgement with regard to safety. Cancellation notices are posted on Facebook and Ravelry.

Does your group do charity knitting?

Yes, check out the Charities We Support to see some of our partners. All members have access to a packet of Free Guild Patterns when they join the guild. Yarn is available at the meetings to take home and use for charity knitting projects.
