Groups & Meetups

Monthly Gathering: Sip + Stitch

Fiber creators of every kind are invited to a monthly sip and stitch hosted by Sonja from the Tecumseh District Library at M+Co Tecumseh. The space stays open late for a relaxed, drop in gathering where attendees can enjoy a hot tea or a latte while spending time with knitters, crochet enthusiasts, and sewing and embroidery artists. Participants are welcome to bring thread, yarn, and tools, make connections, and work on projects together. Beginners are encouraged, with plenty of friendly help available, including guidance from expert knitter Sonja. Those who do not knit can still stop by to say hello, pick up a drink on the way home, and see the fiber projects in progress since the event is open to the public.
