Free drop-in drop-in knitting, crochet and cross-stitch group in the Central Library foyer, open to beginners and experts.
Knit, Natter and Stitch is back at Central Library on Tuesday 10 November, and it's not just a one-off. It's a drop-in group for knitting, crochet and cross-stitch, and it runs every Tuesday afternoon for the next couple of months: 10, 17 and 24 November, then 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29 December, and finally 5 and 12 January 2027. Each session runs from 1.00pm to 3.00pm.
The group meets in the foyer of Central Library, which is the largest of the ten Milton Keynes libraries and the hub for the city's library services, sitting right opposite the main shopping centre. It's open to adults who are already knitters and stitchers, and they welcome beginners and experts alike. You bring along whatever project you're working on at home — knitting, crochet, cross-stitch, or any other stitching craft — and work on it in the company of others. It's a drop-in session rather than a class, so there's no tuition involved and no booking needed; you just turn up when you fancy it.

If you're not coming on your own, carers or companions are welcome to accompany you, provided they stay with you throughout the session. It's also worth knowing that the library runs Knit and Natter groups at other libraries across the area, so if Central isn't the most convenient spot for you, there are other options. One thing to keep in mind: a building refurbishment is affecting some services at Central Library until December 2026, so it's a good idea to check in before you head over. Admission is free, and the sessions run from 1.00pm to 3.00pm.
