WELCOME TO PHILLY KNITS!


Join our Meetup!



  


Our Mission is to spread "The Joy
Of The Fiber Arts"

 

Knitting, Crochet, Sewing, Weaving, etc... all skill levels are welcome from beginner to advanced. 

 

At Philly Knits we hold meetups at various locations and online. Plus, we strongly encourage our members to start their own meetups in their neighborhoods, at local libraries, through their civic association, etc.. 

 

In particular, we believe that Fiber Arts and other "hands-on" skills should be taught in the schools as part of the required curriculum, not only in after-school programs (see School Programs), and therefore we would appreciate help from our Philly Knits members to lobby the School Board to that end.

 

We also post Fiber "events" (so let us know), as well as "requests for volunteers" from charities, artistic projects, local museums, libraries, educational institutions, businesses, and rehabilitation facilities.  Also. send us your contact information if your business has to do with the Fiber Arts and we'll list you on our website: Yarn Stores, Stitchers Who Sell Their Stuff,  Local Fiber Farmers.
 

The Fiber Arts are good for the brain, as they both challenge and relax us. It also connects us to one another, helping to "knit together" our communities. So, please join us and help spread the Joy of Fiber Arts throughout Philadelphia! 

 

Philly Knits is free and sharing is key.
