Can’t help you out…I’m in St. Louis now. But I just wanted to say I used to live in Toledo up until almost 2 years ago. I went to UT and had quite a few friends from Dayton.

Good luck on finding some nearby knitters. I don’t have any either…LOL.

Welcome. I live in Michigan :frowning: If i lived closer i would like to knit with you :XX:

I go to my LYS alot. Most of them are willing to help, however, i don’t see anyone hanging around knitting other than the owner and her employees.

Often wondered if they would mind if knitters would be welcome to hang out :XX:

Well, there’s the “Whatcha Knittin” thread for things you have on the needles,

“Recently Finished Projects” so you can receive lots of “That’s Fabulouses” for the work you’ve completed

AND, finally,
You can start your own BLOG THREAD so we can get to know you better!

Have fun!
