Hey Charlotte !! CRAFT CLT is excited to host our very own Knit in Public Day. Grab your project and join us on our adventure through Charlotte riding the light rail to bring awareness to this worldwide day of celebration. Participants will ride the Blue Line and knit together, and then have lunch together at Market at 7th Street. The only cost is your light rail ticket and whatever food you purchase.
You can join the ride at a number of stations (see below) or just meet up at Market at 7th Street. The three stations with planned meet-ups have free parking.
You can also start at any light rail station convenient to you and meet up at Market at 7th Street.
If you’re driving to 7th Street, instead of taking the light rail, park in 7th Street Station and get your parking ticket validated for two hours when you make a purchase.

World Wide Knit in Public Day was started in 2005 by Danielle Landes and takes place on the second Saturday of June each year. It began as a way for knitters to come together and enjoy each other's company. Knit in Public Day is the largest knitter run event in the world.
