We invite all interested knitters to join us for a meeting to see if our Guild is a good fit for you. We meet the First Thursday of each month at 6:30 pm for social time and start our business end of the meeting at 7:00 pm, get that out of the way and move on to a program or technique of interest. It all evolves into social knitting. Good fun, good people, and good lighting. Learn new things about knitting and find ideas and inspiration. For additional information please send an email to centreknitters@gmail.com. Topics for meetings can be found below. Previous years’ topics can be found on our Past Meetings page.

Daytime Knitting

The Centre County Knitting Guild hosts Daytime Knitting once a month on the 4th Tuesday in the Patton Township Building. Join us from 1 to 3 pm in our normal meeting room for good conversation and knitting!

Pub Knitting

Join us for some good food, drinks, and company as we knit our way through some of the local bars and breweries of the State College area! Pub Knitting happens on the second Thursday of every month, with rotating locations, from 6 to 8 pm. RSVPs are helpful so we know how big of a table we need, but not required.

Registration link is here!

Participation is limited to guild members on a first come, first serve basis, based on when payment is received. There are only 24 available slots, so early payment is recommended to save your spot! Payment details are available at the registration link.

Knit or crochet the whole time, if you like. Just know there’s lots to do:

  • Saturday morning yoga class included in both “day only” and “overnight” prices.
  • Enjoy a hike or just a stroll in the woods. 
  • S’mores by the campfire one or both evenings. 
  • There will be a masseuse giving chair massages for an extra fee.

Overnight Accommodations: 4 rooms, each with full bath, for up to 6 people each. Rooms also have ample space to relax and knit in smaller groups. We won’t be going to the dining hall this year, so meal preparation will be shared amongst the attendees, organized by our volunteer meal coordinator, Colleen. Colleen will contact those who sign up closer to the retreat to organize meal preparation teams.

Further details are available at the registration link, or feel free to contact us with question!


How I Manage (or Don’t) My Stash

For our February meeting, we’ll be discussing stash management! We’ll be sharing tips from the experts, as well as sharing our own stash do’s and don’t’s.
