California - San Jose / South Bay

We do have a MeetUp organization for local Crocheters in the Santa Clara county area (or whoever wants to drive in!).

http://crochet.meetup.com/53/

The meeting is held twice a month at Knitting Arts in Saratoga at 6:00 PM to whenever you leave.

It's held on opposite weeks of the Knitting meetup which is held at:

Panera

20807 Stevens Creek Blvd

Cupertino, CA 95014

(408) 996-9131

http://knitting.meetup.com/48/

You are welcome to crochet or knit at either of these events. Basically you get one event per week to crochet at with others in the area!

The San Jose Stitch 'n *** also meets on Sundays at 4pm at Sonoma Chicken Coop in Campbell (200 East Campbell Avenue). If you don't see them, be sure to check upstairs.

We also have multiple yarn shops here that hold events and while they tend to be geared toward knitters they do offer crochet classes and are largely crochet friendly (particularly Purlescence Yarn, it's my favorite)
