Warm Up America with the Fishnet Crocheters of New England

The Fishnet Crocheters of New England, a local chapter of the Crochet Guild of America (CGOA), will be participating in Craftworks’ “Beginning of Summer Party” on Sunday, June 25, 2017, 11am to 4pm, at Craftworks, 243 West Main St., Northborough, MA.

The Fishnet Crocheters will be demonstrating various crochet stitches and techniques, sharing some FOs (Finished Objects) and UFOs (Unfinished Objects), and answering questions visitors have about the local group as well as CGOA. They will also be collecting rectangles for Warm Up America, as part of the 2017 CGOA Chapter Challenge, so if you have any you would like to donate, please bring ’em along! (Or plan to crochet one during the event -- 7" x 9", 100% acrylic yarn.) The rectangles will later be assembled into lap blankets for Hugcrafters of Newton to donate to Spaulding Rehab Hospitals in the Boston area.

Fishnet Crocheters, founded in 2007, is an active group of friendly crocheters of all levels of expertise. Meetings are dedicated to supporting one another in enjoying and excelling in the art and craft of crochet, and all are welcome! There are no dues to join the Fishnet Crocheters local chapter. Although most Fishnet members are also CGOA members, there is no requirement to join CGOA.

Monthly Fishnet meetings are usually held 1:30 - 3:30 on the last Sunday of the month at the Cary Memorial Library in Lexington, MA. However, the meeting date or location occasionally changes to avoid holiday weekends or attend special events. Please check their website for details. https://fishnetcrocheters.word...
