Social Stitching Opportunities
Stitch Social*
Every Thursday, 6-8pm
Silk Road Textiles is open late every Thursday night, and we are happy to host open stitch nights. Bring an idea – bring a project – bring a question – bring yourself! One knitter said, ”It was so nice to sit, chat and knit. Very relaxing. I may have to come in every week!” – Please do; all hand-stitchers are welcome.
*Stitch Social and Sip & Stitch are free events for our adult customers. We ask that you work on projects using materials purchased at Silk Road Textiles at these events. Stitch Socials are NOT a class! The facilitator or fellow stitchers may be able to answer a quick question--come have some fun!
Sip & Stitch*, Last Tuesday of each month, 6-8pm
Upcoming dates: 3/25, 4/29, 5/27
Join Silk Road Textiles for our monthly Sip & Stitch! A great time to hang out with other folks who stitch in any number of ways. Bring your favorite beverage and any type of stitchery project you’d like to work on. Join us to inspire others and be inspired in a friendly environment.

Beauty is Everywhere
Silk Road Textiles welcomes its new mural, located on the south side of the building! Designed by Christopher A. Ritter and BLDG Brands, “Beauty is Everywhere” invites viewers to open their eyes and discover the extraordinary in the ordinary. It is inspired by Confucius’s wisdom that “everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.” This mural challenges us to shift our perspectives and appreciate the richness around us.
In this work, iconic illustrated women are “sewn together” to create a unified face, symbolizing the interconnectedness of diverse cultures and identities. Each visage blends elements from various ethnicities, celebrating our shared humanity and the beauty of embracing our differences. Flanked by textile patterns from the Sandwich Islands, the Middle East, and India, the mural honors global beauty while inviting reflection on the aesthetics of College Hill. Measuring 16 feet × 60 feet on the side of Silk Road Textiles, this vibrant artwork transforms the urban landscape into a canvas of appreciation and awareness.
Take a little beauty with you everywhere you go!
Totes available exclusively at Silk Road Textiles in store or at the SRT Online Marketplace.
