a 'Knit in Public' session with the Knitterati

Come along to watch the famous 'Knitterati' in action! Join the group in Te Tuhi's foyer for a relaxed knit and chat session. Bring along your current knitting projects, your ideas and knitting accessories.  PLUS, enjoy a 1/2 coffee from the Te Tuhi café when you present your 'Knitter's voucher'. (available from the front desk)

Over the past year, the Knitterati have been meeting up for 'public knitting sessions' in homes, libraries, cafes and community centres. Teaching, enjoying and sharing the craft of knitting is central to the Knitterati's aims. Wherever they go, the group attract a crowd of enthusiastic knitters and inspired onlookers.  For more details on the Knitterati visit their website.

This year the Knitterati are busy preparing for their next exhibition at Art Station, Ponsonby. The exhibition titled "House-to-house" will turn the gallery into a domestic community with houses created in a multitude of materials to express the idea of unity in diversity. The group are inviting artists/craftspeople to contribute houses using the materials of their choice. So, if you have a house tea-cosie or anything which suits the knitted 'house' theme, please bring them along on Tuesday 16th. All welcome.
