   Charlene,

   Sorry to take so long to reply. Have you tried Knitting Meetup.com? They may have a Kits meeting. For awhile the meeting was moving around downtown and Kits. Not sure if it has settled but it is a place to start. Our guold meeting at Oakridge is not that far from Kits but me meet only once a month. A Touch of Wool on Dunbar may have a daytime drop-in.

   Also, try the Kits Community Centre. They may have info on a knitting group. Ashamed to say that I live in Kits and am not aware of the knitting gatherings, but with my work hours it is all I can do to get to the once-a-month WCKG meetings.

   I was wondering…..is there a West Coast Needlearts Show somewhere on the Canadian West Coast I don’t know about? I have found knitting shows throughout the US and one in Toronto in April but would like to attend something closer. And if there isn’t, might I ask why there isn’t one? There seem to be enough knitters on this coast and it would be wonderful for us to have our own show. thanks

    Hi everyone,

    I was wondering if anyone knows of a knitting group on the north shore…I am out near Deep Cove. I’m also a beginner with a few scarfs and even a couple of sweaters under my belt (many years ago) and I’d love to join a group
    Thank you

    I live in the Cloverdale/ Langley area and would like to know if a group of knitters meet in this erea on a more or less regular basis. I hear about several groups meeting in the Vancouver area, but as I work in Vancouver I would rather not drive over the bridge to a knitters group.
    Thank you,Dorothy

    You live very close to THREE BAGS FULL on Main Street. They offer classes. Birklands on Main at 19th is another shop offering classes.
    Regards Janis

    I belong to two knitting/crochet groups. Great people to sit & have coffee with, work on projects, share tips/tricks, get pattern ideas/input etc. Also if you’re looking to learn, we can teach you.

    Thursday nights (weekly) in Burnaby by Gilmore Skytrain (If you live in North Van, this is on Bus #28 route Phibbs Exch/Joyce Stn). Next meetup: July 8/2010 (no meeting on July 1 Canada Day) www.meetup.com/froggers

    Sundays (bi-weekly) in Vancouver near Main & Broadway. Next meetup: June 27/2010 www.meetup.com/vancouver-crochet-crowd
