BVKG July 14th Meeting

It was great seeing everyone at the knit at night on Thursday at Hastings.  It is always fun to catch up in between meetings and hopefully we will see some of the new faces that joined us again.  

Our next Guild meeting will be held on Thursday, July 14th from 6:30-8:30 at the Larry J. Ringer Library in College Station.  The program will include exercises that we can use to prevent fatigue while knitting/crocheting/spinning/weaving.

Remember, we will be getting the first clue for the mystery knit-a-long.  If you can't make the meeting, the clue will be posted here on the blog and in our Ravelry group.

Until then Peace, Love and Knit!

WWKIP Day Fun

BVKG had a blast celebrating WWKIP day at the mall this Saturday.  We got a few interested looks, but no takers on knitting lessons.  Members brainstormed ways to increase visibility next year.

Our next event is Knit at Night on June 23rd at 6:30 pm at the Hastings in College Station.  Join us for knitting and chatting.  Plus, Hastings has 2 for 1 drink specials.

Welcome to the Brazos Valley Knitting Guild Blog!

The Brazos Valley Knitting Guild is an avid group of knitters that meet the 2nd Thursday of the month from 6:30 pm-8:30 pm in the Bryan/College Station area to sit and knit, learn about fiber arts, and socialize.  Each meeting includes a monthly educational program on various techniques.    Most meetings are held at the Larry J. Ringer Library in College Station depending on availability.  Check the blog to determine the meeting location.  We have a yahoo group called bvknitters and a group on Ravelry called Brazos Valley Knitting Guild where we discuss all things knitting.  We recently started a Knit at Night the 4th Thursday of the month from 6:30 pm until ??.  Location of the Knit at Night will be posted on the blog or Ravelry.  While we are the Knitting Guild we do welcome any type of fiber artist to join our meetings.  Beginners are also welcome to join us as there is always someone willing to spread our love of knitting.  The Guild does have membership dues of $12.00 per year, due on the second month of attendance, which helps fund the guild and guild-related activities.    If you have any questions, please email bvknits@yahoo.com.
