WWKiP is coming this weekend! Folks all over the globe will be getting together to knit, purl and crochet in public spaces, parks, pubs and other lots of other places on the 13th and 14th of June. Started on in 2005, it began as a way for knitters to come together and enjoy other’s company. Usually a solitary act, friends and neighbours could spend all their lives never knowing they share a hobby!

WWKiP Day is unique, in that it’s the largest knitter run event in the world. Each local event is put together by a volunteer or a group of volunteers and you’ll be glad to know that Knit in Notts are putting on one in Nottingham!

Knitting at the Lions!
Old Market Square, Nottingham
13th June 11am onwards

Meet Knit in Notts at the steps of the Council House, by the left lion (of course). Knitting will kick off at around 11, and keep going until we’re bored! Bonus points if you knit something for the lions! Please bring your knitting or crochet projects, anything you might need for the weather and your amusement! If it rains, the meeting will move upstairs in the Joseph Else (the Wetherspoons pub opposite).

Head on over to the WWKiP website for more information and events happening in your area.
