SHOW & SHARE


​Show & Share is a unique part of every guild meeting. This is an opportunity for members and guests to show what projects they have recently completed and to share with the audience any new techniques they learned during the knitting process, stories they wish to relate, or to answer questions from the group. 

​Download the Show & Share form to fill out in advance!

Here is a peek at some recent items shown by meeting attendees.
