knitting circles
Crafters meeting regularly
A knitting circle is a social gathering where people work on knitting or other needlecraft together.
The activity provides a pretext for conversation and companionship, making these groups as much about community as craft.
The term sometimes appears figuratively to suggest cozy, domestic, traditionally feminine gatherings: This isn't a knitting circle—we have serious decisions to make.
