World Wide Knit in Public Day (WWKIPDAY) is on 8 June 2024. The initiative was started in 2005 by avid knitter Danielle Landes, with the goal of bringing people together and into the outdoors. Now, it is said to be the largest knitter-run event in the world, with volunteer hosts in Australia, the UK, the US, Finland, Ireland, South Africa, China and more.
‘I used to make bikinis in summer and several cardigans and sweaters in winter, so it’s great to see the younger generations following in our footsteps and enjoying the same activities.’
