I have tried this at Ravelry with very few responses. I am a male knitter with a wife who also knits, and a daughter (who is learning), a son, and 2 dogs. My wife and I live in Murfreesboro, NC (NE NC near VA border). We are in search of other knitters/crocheters in the area.
I lead a group that meets at the Murfreesboro Library on the first Thursday of each month, next meeting March 3rd at 6 pm.

We are also hosting the "Keeping You in Stitches" Knitting Retreat in Murfreesboro, April 29 & 30. We will have classes, prizes, a field trip to an Alpaca farm, notions, yarn, Sit & stitch, and more. It is being brought to you by Heather Boyd, avid knitter & crocheter, her husband Rusty Boyd, avid knitter, crocheter, & published designer, and Claudia Morris, Knitter and owner of Southern Purls in Ahoskie, NC. For More information you can PM here or at smalltownknitguy on Ravelry.

My wife and I are also teaching Knitting, Crochet, and cross stitch from our home. You can also email me for that information.

Hope to find new NC Knitters soon!

Raleigh native here, and my girlfriend and Kninja Master lives in Carrboro/Chapel Hill (actually White Cross, but nobody knows where that is). If you're out our way, you'll want to check out Yarns, Etc (Chapel Hill) and Great Yarns (Raleigh) or if you get a chance, Three Waters Farm just across the Alamance Co. line from Chapel Hill.

Hi fellow NC Knitters!!

I live near Concord and Kannapolis. In fact, Charlotte Motor Speedway is a stones throw from my house. It takes me 5 minutes to get to Concord Mills mall, if that.

The only kitting store I know of is "Knit One, Stitch Two", out in Northcross Shopping Center but I've never been. Is that a good place?

Welcome! I live in Indian Trail, which is near Matthews. I've been to every yarn shop in the Charlotte area. Knit One, Stitch Too has some nice yarns, but they mostly cater to needlepoint customers. BUT nice yarn is nice yarn - so it's worth the trip!
