We Knit for Peace

How to start a Call to Knit

1. Find and activate knitting groups in your local network.
2. Organize a knitting seminar in connection with a performance (email us, and we can put you in touch with the venue you want to be at), a knittingcafé or a guerrilla action in town. 
3.  Join the Facebook group We Knit for Peace for inspiration and contact with other peace knitters worldwide.
4. Publicize the location and time of the knitting call in your social networks (and the Facebook group), create your own posters, and put them up in places for posting. 
5. Ensure you have white yarn (or ask participants to bring it), tables and chairs on site.
6. Download and print our knitting instructions and information below.
7. Knit preferably in white, any motif, but with a link to your desire for peace.
8. Discuss, get inspired and answer the questions:
   - Why do you knit?
   - What do you strive for?
   - Is it possible to knit peace?
9. Write down one or more of the answers above on our labels, along with your name. Tie the labels to the knitted pieces. (To get our labels/tags, please mail us at event@cirkor.se so we can send them to you.)
10. Feel free to email us pictures of what you create and write if we can use your photos on our social media.
11. If you want to contribute your work to our worldwide exhibitions and scenography, you can send us your knitting physically. Email us at event@cirkor.se, and we will give you instructions on how to do so.
