[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Guilds?

[Henry Osborne]

Just to add a note to what Terry said.
We are the only 2 visually impaired people in our Churchs Crafting group ( 
We do more than knit and crochet as Terry said. ) I am also the only man in 
the group, all of that is immaterial because we are contributing to the less 
fortunate among us, and to the wounded warriors at Walter Reed Army Medical 
Center.

Our church's knitting group does not just knitting.  They crochet and now 
Henry and I joined, loom knitting has been added to what is done with in 
their circle!
No one had ever seen loom knitting until we joined!
Just because it is called a knitting group, does not mean they will not take 
other hand made items.  Our group also makes quilts.  They oction off one at 
fiesta, in the fall.

Dee, many yarn shops have classes and.or knitting groups.  I suspect 
crocheting is the same.  Some churches also have similar groups.

Hi everyone,
I am a part of a local quilting guild which I get a lot of benefit from. 
Things like access to equipment I could not otherwise afford, hands on 
classes with well-known quilters, and just the chance to share patterns and 
information. I would love to find something similar for needing crochet and 
weaving but haven’t been able to find anything at least not in my local 
area. Maybe I am not looking in the right places. So, I am wondering if any 
of you might know of such a thing.
