The Knitting Guild Association (TKGA)

Cast On Magazine

Our guild, The Cameilla City Stockinettes is part of a much bigger picture. We are a local chapter of The Knitting Guild Association, better known as TKGA. TKGA is a non-profit organization for knitting and knitters. Since 1984 it has been promoting the craft of knitting and bringing knitters together.

Yearly membership in the TKGA is open to individuals, designers, retailers and wholesalers. Benefits for individual members include: Cast On magazine (4 issues yearly), eligibility for TKGA Correspondence Courses, eligibility for Master Knitting Courses, free entry to Knit and Crochet TKGA Conferences, member discounts and member only website with bonus patterns, lessons and master techniques articles. Individuals pay only $29.00 a year for these benefits including the member only magazine Cast On.

So if you would like to be a part of the bigger picture, join the TKGA. Their correspondence courses are a great way to build your knitting skills. Or perhaps you've always dreamed of becoming a master knitter...through TKGA you can achieve this title!
