If you love New York as much as we do, you know that there’s plenty to do and to see here all the time, as long as you know where to look. We’ve been hearing that it’s sometimes hard to find a crafting circle to join, so here are our tips to make it easy!

Free Groups and Events at the Studio

In addition to the classes and workshops at the Studio, we also have a wide array of completely free meet-ups. With Men’s Night, Flicks with Sticks movie screenings, Thursday Yarncrafting Night, Friday UFO Meet Ups and more, there’s something new to do here nearly every day! Click here to see the all the details on these groups, and drop by some time to get your feet wet.

	LionBrand.com Click here to use our search tool to find a crafting group near you. This tool organizes all the groups that have added their information to the LionBrand.com Directory of Knitting and Crochet Clubs. This makes it easy to find a group where you live, or find a new group if you are moving.
	Ravelry.com Log into Ravelry, and click the “Groups” tab to  search for groups. Try using keywords like the name of your neighborhood or popular nearby locations. There’s even a “Search By Location” option you can use to search by zip code.
