About Us

KnitWits is Bates’ only club dedicated to fiber arts. We welcome knitters and crocheters with any amount of background experience (including brand new beginners!). We teach all our members any knitting or crochet skills they want to learn, and provide all the necessary materials to do so. We hold events, do knit-alongs, and have weekly meetings where we get together to make art, talk, and have fun. We usually meet in the Fireplace Lounge, where we can sit by the fire and get comfortable in the cozy chairs. The Knit Wits club is home to fun people who come together for the love of crafting. We encourage all those want to learn how to knit or crochet, as well as those who are already experts, to join us!
