Focus on Knitting at The TAUNY Center for Canton’s Winterfest
TAUNY also welcomes the submission of older projects for display only at The TAUNY Center during Canton’s Winterfest February 9-23, 2019. Display-only sweaters should also be delivered to The TAUNY Center by Wednesday, February 6th. “We’ve gotten phone calls from people who wanted to share a project from the past that they are proud of or that come with special stories, so we added a Sweaters from the Past display to this event,” says TAUNY Executive Director Jill Breit. Breit is putting up a $100 cash prize for Best in Show.
TAUNY will kick off the knitted sweater display with a knit-in at The TAUNY Center on Saturday, February 9 from 1:00-3:00 pm. Participants do not have to enter a sweater in the competition to join the knitting circle. Knitters are invited to come be inspired by other knitters’ current projects and share theirs with everyone. Crocheters and other needleworkers also welcome! Light refreshments will be served at this program.
