A group of novice and expert knitters, fiber artists, weavers, and spinners will meet at Think Long Island First for a few hours of pattern swapping, exchanging ideas, and just pure fun. The event is open to public so come along with your hooks and needles.
A similar event was held last year to a great success. In addition to knitting and crocheting attendees got a chance to try their hands at spinning and weaving - Donna Lee Trunk brought a portable loom, Carrie Wood set up a spinning wheel.
It's a potluck event so please bring a small dish (really small) to share with other guests. We will have limited storage and heating abilities so make something uncomplicated.

Think Long Island First is dedicated to promoting goods made on Long Island by local artists and craftsmen. By selling things made locally, Think Long Island First lowers the environmental footprint by removing the long distance delivery of products. The company also lifts the barrier of anonymity and non-accountability by introducing to the general public not only the local products but also their makers.
