Dec. 10 Meeting Preview: Destash Extravaganza!

It’s the meeting we’ve all been waiting for - December destash!

Bring any crochet-related items you’d like to donate to others (yarn, hooks, books and magazines). Then we’ll disperse the stash by playing crochet bingo and with raffles. There’s also be drawings for year-end prizes.

New this year, we’ll have some items up for bid in a silent auction. There’ll be larger quantities of yarn and other high-quality items. Proceeds from the auction will help Crochet Twin Cities cover a few increased expenses (including rent for our Textile Center meeting space). Bid increments must be in whole-dollar amounts. See newsletter for more information.

December Meeting is Members-Only. Due to the popularity of the destash event at our December meeting, the meeting is for CTC members only. Please do not invite friends or family to join you if you come to the December meeting.

The meeting will be held Saturday, December 10th, at the Textile Center, 3000 University Ave SE, with the following schedule:
  • 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM - Open Crochet
  • 10:30 AM Silent Auction starts
  • 11:00 AM Show and Tell
  • 11:15 AM Destash begins
  • 1:00 PM - Silent Auction ends
  • 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM – Year-end reports and Drawings
To get the most out of this meeting you'll need to bring:
  • Anything you'd like to remove from your stash: Yarn, Crochet magazine or books, Tools, etc.

4th Saturday meetup: November 26th


Our next meet-up is November 26th at the Barnes and Noble at HarMar Mall in Roseville.  The meetup will be from 9 AM (when the store opens) until  noon - the cafe is in the center of the store and we'll be the crowd with the crochet hooks.

Meetups are our informal gathering each month - open to all crocheters with no fee for attending - with a special welcome extended to new crocheters. Bring a project to work on - or not, if you just want to chat or ask questions - and come when you can and stay as long as you're able.

We hope to see you there!
