This is a new group for people in their 20's and 30's who want to get together to knit, meet new people, and have fun whether you're an experience knitter or crocheter or a beginnner.  Knitting has become trendy and more popular in the past few years and for good reasons - it's relaxing, challenging, and fun.

Shortly after the move the Saturday group was created for those that could not join us on Wednesday nights. Then Tuesday afternoon's were added to the calendar and Friday afternoon's were added in the Fall of 2012. We …

This is a group for anyone interested in crafting. I personally have just gotten started in jewelry making a bit. I also sew and crochet. Not sure where this group may go, if the right sorta people join and really get involved, the sky's the limit. I looked and there isn't anything local in the area other then driving for me 45 minutes, so I decided to start a group in the area and see how it goes. I hope you join and help make it a fun time and meet fantastic people. All skill levels welcome.

In 2009, after looking for a group in the Fairfax City area for sewers/knitters/quilters, etc. and not finding one quite close enough, I figured why not start one? Our group is for people looking to stitch with a group to complete all those projects we've started and not completed, and to gain inspiration from others on new projects. Our group is very diverse in experience level, age, and craft. I think that has led to the most fun! No two meet ups are ever the same.

I would love the opportunity to meet new people that can bring to the group fun, creativity, and willingness to learn new things.  I envision this group as a social outlet for those artists that love to experiment with new ideas and to just make new friends.

Group participation is a must in this group so …
