Knit In Public Day

Knit in public day is about knitting in public together as a group. We didn't have one last due to Covid. This year I'd like to do one a bit different to include everyone from all over the world and those who may still be shielding due to Covid and those in the spoonie community can join in too.

So while it says knit in public I'm going to hold one online. Whether you want to knit or crochet at home in bed or in your lounge or at your fave coffee shop or your fave park that’s ok it’s up to you if you knit in public or not and please don’t feel like you have to knit in public I definitely won’t be and that’s ok 😊.
