The BIG APPLE KNITTERS’ GUILD (BAKG) is an organization of over 300 knitters in New York City. We are women and men, young and old, of all races, religions and sexual orientations with one common passion: knitting!

Our mission is:

• Preserving and supporting knitting and all forms of fiber arts.
   
• Educating all who want to learn these arts.
   
• Awakening awareness to these arts and fostering appreciation and respect for their place among other arts.
   
• Providing a harmonious network among its members who come together for these and all purposes.
   
• Returning to society the products of our craft.
