The Yarn Therapy Group - The Bronx & Westchester

On the Bronx/Westchester border exists a group of yarn addicts (and those who strive to be so) We are knitters & crocheters, who welcome those who sew, needlepoint etc.. if your craft involves a needle or yarn, join us. Our goal: to help those like us, the Obsessed. Books or yarn - we'll help motivate each other to master techniques from the many books we have purchased and to start and finish projects before yarn stashes take over our homes. For the Beginner to the Advanced, we'll host periodic classes that teach techniques and tricks of the trade - but mostly we'll enjoy each other's company
