GUILD
MEETINGS:
We
normally try to schedule regular guild meetings (except
Potluck and Founders' Day Luncheons, etc.) for the second
Saturday of each month from 2:00 to 4:00 PM
at the main Library Headquarters Auditorium,
1640 South Lindbergh Boulevard (opposite Plaza Frontenac),
St. Louis, MO (unless noted otherwise). The County
Library Meeting Room Lottery is now held twice a year so
actual meeting dates are determined six months at a time.
Please check our calendar below and mark your own calendar
accordingly. Check calendar (below) for exceptions.
The
Designated Knitter is available from 1:30 to 2:00 PM for
knitting assistance prior to the meetings. Check our
Knit-Along Page for
info on Knit-Alongs before the regular guild meeting.
Check
out our Greater
St Louis Knitters' Guild group on Ravelry!
