Ayesha -

Hey,

I’m i-e-sha, but everyone calls me Jamma - either you remember is good with me.Cat-lady, Tree-hugger, plant-mom and yarn loverI’d love to share my love of knitting with you and support you in your first project. There’s quite a bit of theory, but I’d like us to get stuck in so we have something to (physically) take away by the end of the evening.Check out my knitting and hobbies here @kushtyknits

Azeezat -

Hiya,

I'm Azeezat. I'm a big fan of the benefits of knitting and crocheting in a group. It's a great way to get to know other people, without too much pressure, and can be very regulating.

Knitting continues to teach me about the importance of process over progress :)

I share poetry on @finewordsweave and therapeutic knitting here @soul.knit.grow

Idil -

Hiiii!

My name is Idil. Knit and Sip was my first in-person event and also my introduction to crocheting.

Now, I’m excited to share my love of crocheting with all of you! I was hooked from day one, and a year later, I’ve made bags, wallets, Kindle sleeves, and balaclavas.

If you need help with the basics, I’m here to teach you.

I hope you join us at our next event!
