Snohomish Knitters Guild
Home to all the fearless fiber artists in Snohomish County Washington and the surrounding area
Special Announcement
Hi!
It is that time of year -- annual membership renewals for 2020-21 year! Because 2020 has not been a good year to anyone, the board made the decision that dues for next year will be $20 for everyone. Their is a catch (it is 2020 after all!), payment will need to be online only.
We are still following the "social distancing" guidelines. We do not know when our in-person meetings will begin again. The board has decided that we will begin our monthly meetings again virtually (online) and they are open to suggestions. We can still support our community during this difficult time by watching how-to videos, Instagram, virtual meetings, FaceTime with friends while knitting, crocheting, spinning, weaving, etc., talking to people on the phone. Working through our stash? Reading more?
Our local yarn stores also need our support now. Listed below are a few yarn shops in our area who could use our support.
- Great Yarns (Everett, WA yarn store) it is best to call (425) 252-8155 for current information.
