I’ve done some knitting, too but I think I need some in-person help with that before I try again.

I went looking for groups in Tampa Bay before and found like abandoned internet forums and that apparently some Michaels have free classes, but that’s it.

Unfortunately, a lot of that stuff is expensive, too (tools, equipment, supplies).. I have a ton of stuff now that I never use..

A weekly/monthly crafting get-together would be soooo great. And that summer camp thing sound very interesting.

@ Kiera – I love the color of that tiny(!!!) craft space too. I’m not even a fan of pink normally, but it fits so well. By art books do you you mean, deconstruction of books? Painting inside of them, etc etc? I’d love to find a crafty group in town, I was talking to @RedheadJessica about signing up for http://www.redvelvetart.com/whats-new/summer-camp & getting together & crafting weekly or something like that. — I miss you blogging too!

When I have the time I like to work on book art projects. I’m also getting into t-shirt reconstruction.

There use to a tampa bay crafting group for women called the Girlfriend Sweatshop a while back that was disband. I only went to maybe two meetups but I wish I had had the chance to become more involved, they were a very talented group of crafty ladies.

I need to start blogging again, post like this remind me that I really do miss it.
