World Wide Knit in Public Day was started in 2005 by Danielle Landes[1] and takes place on the second Saturday of June each year.
Knit in Public Day is the largest knitter run event in the world.
They bring their own fresh ideas into planning where the event should be held, and what people would like to do.
In the past, some people have used this event as a means to show the general public that "not only grannies knit".
Over the years there have been local events in Australia, China, Serbia, England, Finland, France, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Slovenia, South Africa, Sweden, United States, Canada, and Germany.
