KNITTING & CROCHET GROUPS:
These
are groups who don't want to be listed on our
MEETUP GROUP,
because they already have many members, but they are open to
accepting new members on a case-by-case basis.
TUESDAYS:
The Philadelphia Guild of
Handweavers and Fiber Artists http://www.pghw.org/
3705 Main Street Philadelphia PA
19127,
pghwinfo@gmail.com,
215-487-9690 / The Guild has
a portable fibers group every Tuesday at the Guild House. We
get together from 10am to 12 noon and those attending bring whatever
project they can carry in. We have weaving, dyeing, spinning, knitting,
crocheting, embroidery and any fiber work you can think of and is
portable. We have a wonderful library and a Kuerig to boot. There is no
agenda and it is a lot of fun. You do not need to be a member to come
and there is plenty of free parking across the street. This coming
Tuesday, the group will not meet due to our annual Celebration of
Fibers.

Katherine of Siena Parish
