I could not find a group in my area that both knits and contributes to the community so I decided to form one myself. There are many great organizations out there that will take donated knitted items. Some that I would like to contribute to are Knit a Square (sewn together into blankets and sent to AIDS orphans in Africa), Afghans for Afghans, Project Linus (blankets for ill children). I would also like to donate to our local shelters and hospitals. I am not an expert at knitting and have only k …
To new members, knitting can seem like a sort of silly hobby, or at least like something that's not incredibly useful (those people are not on our list for getting knit socks this year). But those of us who knit know that there are many benefits to knitting, not only for ourselves but for the people who receive the work of our hands, regardless of whether we know them. Knitting is good on an individual level, by keeping traditions alive and connecting women with their pasts, giving them a femini …

Love to 'craft', knit, stitch, scrapbook, create? There are many unique and fun meet up groups to choose from in the Las Vegas/Henderson community for example: scrapbooking, knitting, crocheting, community volunteer networks etc. So, I decided that I would roll all of these interests into one group, find a great group of individuals who not only love to craft but then to give back to the community. 'Knitting Beanies for Preemies', crocheting scarves for the homeless, sewing blankets for shelt …
I decided to organize this group in a home setting since it's more comfortable than a hard seat at a coffee shop. The purpose of this group is to have like minded individuals to share ideas, friendships and to create different projects for charity. Bring a camping chair, your current project, and join the fun! There're inexpensive sets of crocheting needles you can buy at any craft store then go wild finding your favorite color yarns.

Welcome! We thank you for your interest. We are a close-knit group of brothers who originally came together united by our mutual love of riding and all things motorcycle, but our ties have grown as strong as any family. We have several rides/events a month-and we ride...alot. We are a member of the Las Vegas Confederation of Clubs, and we support our fellow motorcycle clubs, and as an MC we follow the time honored tradition of prospecting potential members, our patch is earned, not bought or jus …

I decided to start this group to form a group of close knit friends who need to get out the house often. Its for women in their 20's who work 9-5, graveyard, or SAHM. Its an opportunity for us all to get out grab a drink, or a movie, go on a hike, or check out restaurants. It is intended to be drama free, so please leave everything at home and just have a good time!
