| Twice a year, usually in May and November, the Guild hosts a guest teacher for 1-2 day intensive workshops on various knitting techniques or projects. Recent guest teachers have included Lucy Neatby, Ginger Leuders, Susanna Hansson, and Myna Stahman. Check the Calendar for upcoming workshops. |
Each Guild meeting includes a short
program presented by a member. Programs may include a new stitch, a way
of casting on or casting off, a demonstration of repairing wooden
needles, a demonstration of how yarn is made, or a discussion of how to
improve our skills — all drawn from the experience and skills of our
members. |

The Guild supports the work of two public service organizations, the
Daybreak Center for battered women and children, and
Stitches From The
Heart, a national knitting charity. Guild members donate hats, scarves,
and infant/children’s clothing which we have knitted for the benefit of
these organizations. |
Guild Members receive a monthly
newsletter which includes a calendar of upcoming events in the knitting
world, news of Knitting Guild Association activities, and knitting
seminar and travel opportunities. |

Summer is celebrated
with a Knit-In in a local park. Food, all kinds of knitting contests
and a great day in a lovely southern California setting make a fibery
welcome to summer. |
