GETTING STARTED

PROJECT IDEAS


There are knit and crochet guilds across the country that link over 15,000 people who enjoy these crafts and get together to exchange ideas and share information. They often have special teaching programs for people who want to learn to knit or crochet. Many of these chapters are affiliated with two national organizations: The Knitting Guild of America (P.O. Box 1606, Knoxville, TN 37901, www.tkga.com) and the Crochet Guild of America (2502 Lowell Rd., Gastonia NC 28054, 847-776-7941, www.crochet.org). These national organizations also sponsor national and regional conventions where you can take classes and shop.

Whether it’s a guild or informal group, new knitters and crocheters are welcome to share ideas and the fun. It’s a wonderful way to learn new stitches, and to find answers to problems.
