This event is the 18^th organized by Knit and Crochet TN, a group of needle workers who are dedicated to providing knitters and crocheters of Tennessee with information on area groups, special events, educational opportunities and charitable needs in our community.

The day will begin at 9:00 am and end at 3:00 pm with knitting and crocheting all day.  Participants are asked to bring their own needles and yarn.  Lunch may be purchased for $5 or bring a sack lunch and drinks will be provided.  Door prizes will be given throughout the day, and Big Stitch University will hold classes. The Boutique will sell yarn, magazines, needles and hooksv for $1-$5 and original patterns for 25¢.

For those individuals who would like to learn to knit or crochet, there will be FREE instruction available throughout the day.  Instruction space is limited, so reservations are recommended and can be made by emailing kandctn@gmail.com.  For those who are interested in furthering their skills, classes are available at Big Stitch University. Reservations are needed only for those who desire instruction.

If you cannot attend, but want to participate in our projects, contact us.  We have several drop-off points for completed items.
