Bring your current fiber arts project and your favorite NA beverage to enjoy the company of fellow humans while stitching. Most people in this group knit or crochet, but you'll also see people mending, cross-stitching, embroidering, and sewing. New folks are always welcome.
We also offer free knitting lessons and supplies.

TL;DR
Who: Everyone
When: Tuesdays, 6pm-8pm

Accessibility: Our venue is wheelchair accessible. There are no steps to get into the space and there is a gender neutral restroom that is ADA accessible. We do not require masks. Chairs have no armrests and can accommodate larger bodies.
*When we meet at BaseCamp/Gearhouse*: It's sometimes hard to hear others, and it can be a little sensory-overwhelming. The venue is cashless (bring a card if you'd like to order food/drink). The venue serves coffee, tea, light snacks, beer, and wine.
*Contact us if you need help with accommodations or have any questions.*
Help Keep Our Meetings Safe: Be Excellent to Each Other
This group exists so people can relax, make things with their hands, and spend time with other humans. We ask that all members agree to the following:
Be kind.
This is an inclusive space open to people of all ages, genders, races, orientations, & skill levels. Treat each other with respect and assume good intentions.
Consent matters, even with yarn.
Ask before offering critique, jumping in to help, or taking someone’s project out of their hands. Some people want advice. Some people just want to vent.
No gatekeeping.
Fiber arts are art. Art is subjective. There is no single “right way." Share techniques, tips, & experience, but don’t be dogmatic.
Encourage curiosity.
Everyone…
