Trans-Affirming Knitting & Crocheting (UTSC, UTM, St. George)

NovemberNov 14 2023 12:00 - NovemberNov 15 2023 14:00



Social - St. GeorgeSocial - UTMSocial - UTSC
UTSC Library, Robarts Library, OISE Library, Hart House Integrated Learning and Community Engagement, UTM Library and the Sexual & Gender Diversity Office are proud to offer an opportunity for trans-affirming knitting and crocheting projects starting during Trans Awareness Week in November, with several follow-up opportunities to work on the pieces at St. George campus.

The events will focus on knitting and/or crocheting trans positive items (they can be trans flag-related, words of affirmation, positive imagery, etc.), as well as gender affirming items, such as 'knockers' and packers.

Patterns and instructions will be provided, yarns and needles/hooks will be provided, and you're welcome to bring your own. Some volunteers will be available to assist in teaching skills for those who are beginners but want to participate at St. George and UTM. This cannot be guaranteed at UTSC, although experienced knitters/crocheters are encouraged to attend to share this knowledge.

Nov 14 - St. George - 12:00pm-2:00pm
Nov 14 - UTM - 12:00pm-2:00pm
Nov 15 - UTSC - 12:00pm-2:00pm

Everyone is welcome - trans folks, queer folks, and allies who want to contribute skills and support to trans communities!

Specific location information will be provided to registrants closer to the event dates. All locations will be accessible buildings with all-gender washrooms available nearby. Snacks will be provided.

If you are interested, then please register by November 7, 2023.
