History of the Guild
In 1985 the knitting scene in Seattle was sparse. In response to an article that appeared in Vogue Knitting, urging formation of local chapters of The Knitting Guild of America, a group of knitters met regularly at Tinctoria on Stone Way in Seattle.
Over thirty-five years later, the Guild continues to provide a supportive environment for knitters. Through a network of enthusiastic volunteers, it presents programs that stimulate the imagination and enhance knitting skills. The Guild publishes a monthly electronic newsletter and provides monthly informative and social meetings for our membership. The Guild also participates in knitting for our community with various charity projects to Knit It Forward. Additional detail may be found in the by-laws.
