Stitch-n-Chat attendees knit together at local shop
The Stamford Times - November 30 2006
As consumers across the nation storm shopping malls in search of the perfect gift —a variety of sweaters, mittens and blankets are assembled in a Stamford shop on High Ridge Road.The presents are not bought — but made. Area knitters descend on Knit Together, a yarn and accessory shop which also offers classes, to perfect their craft.
A small group of women gathered Wednesday at the more than three-year-old store for Stitch-n-Chat, a group created so attendees can socialize while receiving project help from 30-year-veteran knitting teacher Pam Grushkin.
"You can come and it's social, it's a forgiving atmosphere," Grushkin said, explaining that customers bring in their creations to work on, "Whatever they want to bring to the table... literally, we're willing to help with it." [more]
