You live in Silicon Valley and you knit. Maybe you knit in groups and on your own. Maybe you take classes at shops and Stitches West... but do you have a group of friends and curious knitters you can learn and grow with? The Knitspiration knitting guild invites you to expand your knitting horizons with us!
About our guild
Knitspiration of Silicon Valley is a TKGA-affiliated knitting guild located in Santa Clara County, California. We meet once a month to support and encourage one another towards excellence in knitting through education, group discussion, and sharing. All knitters are welcome to attend meetings -- If you decide to join our local guild, we will ask for $12 local dues per year, used to hire our instructors and pay for special class supplies.
Meetings
Our guild meets from 7:30 - 9:00 on the third Monday every month at Knitting Arts, in Saratoga, California. [map]
