Stitch 'n' Bitch
Stitch and Bitch is not currently running at Glasgow Women's Library as we are focussing our energies on fundraising for our move to the Mitchell Library
We are keen to show that this is not the end of Stitch and Bitch, just a new phase that we have to enter at this time... a sort of development era. We definitely foresee that when we move to the Mitchell Library there will be scope to start up a new and interesting project using the patterns in our collection.
Please contact the Library for more information.

Glasgow Knit 'n Stitch
Glasgow Knit 'n Stitch is a socially-based group that brings together all sorts of people from all over Glasgow and the surrounding areas to share their passion for yarn, needles and hooks. They're a crafty bunch, ranging from beginners to experienced and although most members are knitters, they're very happy to include all kinds of textile art at their meetups.
They meet regularly (at least twice a fortnight) and the goal is to provide a friendly atmosphere where people can share in the pleasure of stitching, as well as help each other with a technique, a pattern or project, a yarn swap - and of course provide an appreciative audience to show off your finished projects. We get it, there's no need to explain !
Membership of our group is FREE - thanks to the kind sponsorship of "Stitching Time" who are based in Haddow Street, Hamilton.
If you are interested in learning how to knit and/or crochet for the first time, so long as the group have advance notice that you'd like to learn at a meetup, there will probably be someone who can help you get started. So why not RSVP "Yes" to one of their scheduled events?
