The Tempe Knitting Meetup Group

Is there a project you'd like to start or try but are scared to? Are there weird stitches or strange abbreviations that you can't wrap your head around? Thinking about actually trying that new circular needle but the thought of a twist has got you twisted up? Please attend! We have knitters of all different skill levels, and we are all willing to help you with your current "knitter's block"!
