Knit your ass off in June!
Knit your ass off in June!
Sounds crazy, no? But by popular request Knit PH is extending the yarn seasons into summer — making this an all-season group. Ginormous thanks go out to summer event organizers Lisa G. and Eliza B. For the summer months Knit PH explores the urban outdoors in Prospect Park and at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. We'll encounter raccoons, ogglers, looky-loos, people on meds, giant strollers, lost Manhattanites, and Europeans. It's best if we band together. We will still meet at Freddy's each month on the 3rd Sunday.
Summer Yarn Discounts
Stitch Therapy will be offering 10% discount cards for members that register on Knit PH for the summer sessions. Cards will be handed out on premise to people who register "Yes" (not "Maybe"). The cut-off date for discount cards will be two days before the events.
- Knit PH members receive 10% discount cards by registering "Yes" on meetup.
- One-time use on stocked yarn only (not sale yarn/books/tools)
- Each card is good for one purchase. Cards can not be combined for a 20% discount.
You snooze, you lose. So get with it people!
