My friend Leslie taught me, as of last month, to knit. She and some of the other ladies recently submitted some of their work to be judged and won some awards. Now they need a name for their knitting group, but sadly my brain is tapped out and I can’t think of anything good. So I ask you, Dopers, what sort of snazzy name would you recommend for a knitting group? One caveat: must be blue-haired old lady friendly. Something like ‘Stitch N Bitch’ is cute but wouldn’t go over well. ---

I missed the edit window, and risk Doper Wrath for the dreaded consecutive post…but assuming your name indicates your location, Y’all’s Shawls. ---

My old handwork group was called the [town name] Clickers. You know, how the knitting needles go clickclickclick. ---

Knot Just Knitters–we named our group this, because we included knitters, crocheters, cross-stitchers and any other type of needle work. ---
