The Mason Knitting and Spinning Guild

Hello and Welcome to the blog of the Mason Knitting and Spinning Guild. This is a free association created by Jurate Gertzbein in November 2012. We began meeting right away, every two weeks, and have educational sessions each time we get together. So far I have been doing all the teaching and my hope is to pass on some of this to others. The topics have been alternating between a knitting topic and a spinning topic. We have over thirty members and are steadily growing. 

As of the winter of 2013-2014, the guild only meets November through to April. 

The guild is free to join and people who attend receive free instruction, free membership and free notes. I provide a loaner spinning wheel for a dollar a day to anyone who wants to rent it out and take it home. 

In the future I would like to be able to introduce weaving instruction as well, but first I need to find the space for this and some equipment.


The cotton dishcloth is an example of the project we did in the intarsia knitting class. And because today is Valentine's Day, how fitting that I declare how much I love our guild group!
