Formulate your gift-stealing strategy for our White Elephant Gift Exchange Game. Bring a $20-25 wrapped gift without any name tag (stash dive if you want). The gift should be related to or themed after knit/crochet/yarn, etc.

Participation in the White Elephant is optional, but it’s a lot of fun and can be quite competitive! Bring yarn-friendly snacks or finger food. With any luck, the weather will be cool enough to show off lovely hand-made scarves, shawls, or sweaters. Join us!
