Our Motto is "Fiber Manipulation"! We are happy to boast that we have a serious fiber problem, and it is definitely contagious. Most of the members of our motley little crew are knitters, although there are many that indulge in other needle arts such as crochet, spinning, weaving, felting, embroidery, cross stitch, sewing and quilting. If you are in the northeast Georgia region and have a similar love for fiber goodness, yarn, yarn making and all things otherwise “needley,” please join us!
Our diverse group is growing every day. At each meeting you can count on at least 10 or more members to be present. We talk, laugh, cry and cuss (some of us more than others) and can be found sharing our lives, skills, experiences (and our recipes) with one another, in general, making the world a better place, one stitch at a time.
Open to anyone who wants to participate, we only ask that you have a basic understanding of your chosen craft but feel free to ask questions and seek support as our membership has a vast array of skill levels, from beginners to advanced, that would be happy to offer up their knowledge and understanding of the craft.
