Men Who Knit Promoting and inspiring the art of knitting amongst men.

Hey i have a question about the Knitters Guild Association. Does anyone know much about this? I went to the site and was very interested in joining...I saw a masters knitting thing and thought it might be fun. is anyone a part of this guild? i think it would be fabulous for more men to get involved....thanks for the comments and advice in advance....

Since we are on the subject of local yarn shops, do any of you have suggestions for a LYS in the Knoxville, TN area?
