After the October 2020 Virtual Cardiff Retreat we both decided that we didn’t want to wait four months between gatherings to see our wonderful community again. So Jennie came up with the idea of The Knit-Tea Society, a year round crafting oasis on the internet, intended to be inclusive and welcoming to all. Hosted via Patreon, there are many benefits to being a member of the Society. There are three tiers which offer increasing levels of rewards. Everyone gets access to our Discord server, a warm and chatty place. Also, all patrons get exclusive viewing rights to a monthly podcast, an annual discount to our retreats and also a quarterly prize draw. Higher tier patrons receive added extras such as monthly online knit nights (or afternoons/mornings, depending where in the world you are!), annual merchandise, increased retreat discounts and more!
