What we’re about
Welcome to Philly Knits! At our meetups all skill levels from beginner to expert are welcome. Our resource website is PhillyKnits.org, to help beginners learn how to knit, crochet, etc, and provide information about other groups and events.
-
Members may post their meetups with us, but the info must be kept up-to-date and event hosts must list their direct contact info (cell or email) in case of emergencies.
-
We also post requests for volunteers for educational, charity, and artistic projects, and we sometimes work with local museums, libraries, educational institutions, and rehabilitation facilities.
-
Our meetups are mainly located in the city of Philadelphia, but we do make exceptions for nearby counties, as long as the calendar doesn't get too crowded.
Again, thanks for joining Philly Knits and we look forward to meeting up with you!

LynnLandes@gmail.com - Philly Knits Online!Link visible for attendees
Welcome to Philly's Knits Online! We meet every two weeks on Thursday's from 7-8:30 pm. This is our chance to knit together, help each other out, and mainly chat about what's going in the Fiber Arts scene in Philly, plus whatever else attendees would like to share to keep the discussion informative and fun. This is a group only for those who live in Philadelphia or nearby. For knitters etc who live outside our area, please join our very successful local, national, and international group, Virtual Knit2gether, hosted by Kristen.
You'll receive via Meetup email the Zoom link about an hour in advance of the PhillyKnitsOnline meetup. Please join us 5 minutes before 7 pm so that I can help anyone who is having technical difficulty, and as to not disrupt the meetings once it gets started. If a problem occurs, please email me directly at LynnLandes@gmail.com and I'll do my best to help you out. That's it! Hope to see you there!
