Central Iowa Knitters » Meeting

August 2011: New (old) time, new place!

centraliowaknitters — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 02:32:37 +0000

Starting with this month’s meeting, Central Iowa Knitters will hold their monthly meetings at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in Urbandale (corner of 86th and Aurora). The move was approved at the June meeting. One consequence of the move is that we are moving back to our original meeting time of 7pm on the first Tuesday of the month.

So join us TOMORROW, August 2nd at 7pm at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in rooms 130/132. Enter through the west doors of the family life center. There is no official program; bring your knitting, your charitable donations, and your show-and-tell. See you there!
